Donate to Worker Bee Gas Card Fund here! All donations are matched by the City of Bee Cave's Economic Development Corporation.
In
partnership with the Lake Travis Chamber of Commerce, the City of Bee
Cave is rolling out a new gas card program between now and the end of
the year.
This concept originated at Mayor King’s last business roundtable from one of our small businesses, Ben Archer - State Farm Insurance.
Mr.Archer and eight other businesses kicked
off the program by each contributing $380 into the initial gas fund,
which allowed us a chance to request a $15,000 match from the Economic
Development Board - which they granted!
This program will run through December of 2022.
