Thank you for taking the time to learn more about The ShareWaves Foundation. ShareWaves Overview: We continue to build a youth sports foundation that provides positive, game-changing solutions for children in under-resourced communities. We are helping kids play the games they love. Who We Are: ShareWaves is a 501c3 public charity working to deliver high-quality sports experiences to kids in under-resourced communities. Launched almost 3 years ago, ShareWaves is targeting children from any home that experiences multi-layered barriers to sports access and are less likely to receive the support they need. Our Why? The gap between "the haves" and the "have nots" is getting wider. Without access to sports and structured play, kids miss critical benefits, including physical health, social-emotional growth, and academic development. Emergent Issue!!! COVID restrictions further limited access to organized sports and extracurricular activities causing kids to lose an entire year of life-skill development, social interactions, and academic interruptions. ShareWaves is targeting several ways to help kids recover by delivering tangible impact to children suffering and delivering programs of significance to kids in need. 5 Key Initiatives: 1. Provide micro-funding grants to assist in connecting kids to high-quality sports experiences. 2. Build #Ready2Play Training Experiences for Kids and the #Ready2Play app. 3. Create digital content that showcases the "power of sports" to transform young lives. 4. Lead the formation of a KC Youth Sports Alliance (KC-YSA) 5. Host high-energy, one-of-a-kind events that raise awareness and support our mission. Children in our city need us now more than ever as they experience an avalanche of pressure this fall returning from extended periods of social isolation, educational uncertainty, and inactivity caused by COVID. We work to develop strong impact partnerships with like-minded individuals and organizations that want help kids heal.

Thoroughbred Diesel opened in 2001 as a one bay shop in Winchester, KY. We operated our shop on three simple ideas; impeccable customer service, lowest possible prices, and fast delivery. We specialized in diesel performance and diesel stock replacement installs. Through our years as strictly a service and performance garage we realized that people all over the country need a place they could trust to call and get free honest advice about their diesel vehicles. It was shortly after that we launched our website and began our "Call For Free Advice" slogan. At Thoroughbred Diesel we know more than just the part numbers, we know the parts. We are still a real shop located in Winchester Kentucky that specialize in diesel performance and diesel repair and, we still offer free advice.
