Turn5 CEO Steve Voudouris spearheaded a heartwarming project at the company’s recent block party, transforming the life of 18-year-old Earl Offenback.
Offenback, a Bucks County resident and Make-A-Wish recipient battling Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), received the keys to his dream ride – a completely overhauled 2002 Jeep Wrangler.
Voudouris, passionate about giving back to the community, led Turn5’s ExtremeTerrain.com brand, specializing in Jeep customization, to take on this special project.
The transformation was incredible. Offenback’s once ordinary Jeep became a showstopper with lifted suspension, custom wheels and tires, a sleek matte black paint job, and more. But Voudouris and his team went above and beyond the aesthetics.
During the customization process, a rusted frame was discovered and replaced. Additionally, the engine and transmission received a complete rebuild, ensuring Offenback’s dream Jeep wouldn’t just look amazing, but perform flawlessly as well.
The reveal at Turn5’s block party was an emotional occasion. “This year was extra special,” said Voudouris. “It allowed us to showcase our new headquarters and commitment to the community, while fulfilling a deserving teenager’s dream.” Voudouris further praised Offenback’s positive attitude, calling it “inspiring.”
This story highlights Steve Voudouris‘ leadership and Turn5’s dedication to charitable endeavors. Their combined efforts brought joy to a young car enthusiast facing significant challenges.
