Help The Homeless Through Trucking

To Whom It May Concern,

Hello, my name is Tom Gilliam, I am the owner and instructor for The CMV Tutor LLC. A CDL school training in Onalaska, WI, Rochester, MN and Eagan, MN. I wish to offer my services and vehicles to help the homeless attain a new direction and path in their lives. I will absorb all the cost of training for the prospective student and train them to qualify for testing for the CDL of their choice. I offer: Class A Manual, Class B Manual/ Auto, Passenger Endorsement, Hazmat and School Bus training. The prospective student must be able to obtain or have a Class D license (regular vehicle license), pass a DOT driver's physical, pass the CLP (Commercial Learner's Permit) at a local DMV and be currently drug free.

This drug stipulation only applies to current usage of any drug or narcotic. Not previous usage. Please be aware that this may or may not affect future employment in this industry, but there is always opportunity.

The candidate must also be homeless or destitute and unable to meet their current or previous financial needs. This program does not include those that just need employment!

I will accept recommendations from halfway houses, homeless shelters, counselors that know this person is indeed in dire straits and homeless or destitute. I wish to help those that have literally reached the end of their rope and have nowhere else to turn for help.

I will choose one candidate every three to four months to accept into the program. I will assist this person in getting through the initial paperwork and licensing to attain their new CDL and career path.

The CDL path that I teach leaves no CDL restrictions on their license. I teach 10 speed manual transmission, which means they will be able to operate any vehicle in the commercial industry as long as they choose the Class A.

To any interested parties please contact me at: thecmvtutor@gmail.com or via the business cell phone: (608) 358-3143.

I am truly looking forward to answering any questions and meeting with the future drivers.

PLEASE READ ALL OF THE PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS

This program is for those that ARE homeless or destitute!

While we wish we could help all of the persons that are having a hard time, we can't. This help is funded by the owner of the school and is intended for those without a roof over their heads.

While this program has been deemed as 'FREE' in actuality it is not. The participants must put forth time and effort on their part to complete this program and have the fortitude to wish to succeed. Nothing in this world is truly 'free.'

The participants MUST be residents of Minnesota or Wisconsin. We have been receiving correspondence from other states.

The applicant must be drug free prior to and during the training process. This is a Federal requirement.

If you are unemployed and looking for training, but have a roof over your head with low income. Please check with your city's unemployment office for aid.
