Sept. 28, 2015

Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations LLC is donating the former headquarters of Speedco Inc. in Cayuga, Ind. to the Valley Professionals Community Health Center, which plans to transform the building into a beacon that provides high-quality health and social services for residents of northern Vermillion County.

“The people of Cayuga and Vermillion County were paramount to the success of Speedco during the early origins of the company,” says Scott Damon, president, Speedco. “This community has always supported Speedco and we are delighted to return the favor today by donating our former headquarters building to two very worthy causes. We remain dedicated to the well-being of Vermillion County.”

The donation of the former Speedco headquarters facility will allow Valley Professionals Community Health Center to serve more people in the local community and create a more sustainable future for local citizens of Vermillion County, located along the Indiana-Illinois border in western Indiana.

“We are excited about moving into the former Speedco building because it will allow us to expand our services and create new jobs,” says Terry Warren, CEO of the community health center. “By increasing our capacity, we are making our services more accessible to our patients in the numerous counties.”
