It’s the most beautiful and festive time of the year and temperatures are getting chillier every day. For many people in Fresno, this can be a cause for concern, or even a threat to their own well-being. If you’re looking for a way to give back to those in need this holiday season, consider donating old coats and jackets! We make it easy: just bring your donations down to our dealership, located at the intersection of Blackstone and Bullard. The more donated items we have, the better chance we have at filling up our entire truck for our homeless population!
Donate Old Coats & Jackets with the Help of Fresno Mission and Own A Car
The Fresno Mission is dedicated to providing aid to those in need as the weather gets colder, and Own A Car is lending a helping hand. As you bring out your coats and jackets for the upcoming season–before you decide to throw out the items that no longer serve you, consider bringing them to our dealership here in Fresno, CA! In honor of Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week, we are accepting drop-offs anytime between noon and 2 p.m. starting this weekend and ending the next. You can find out more about Fresno Mission and other ways you can get more involved through their website.
