Each year the Conicelli dealerships in Conshohocken and Springfield focus on a particular charity for the holiday season. This year's focus is the group Support Homeless Veterans, and we will be collecting winter items for the veterans in each of the showrooms.
Support Homeless Veterans (http://www.supporthomelessveterans.org), located in South Philadelphia, is a diverse group of dedicated individuals who share the goal of helping military veterans in any way they can. Their commitment has led to providing housing as well as food and clothing to deserving veterans.
As they say in their mission statement, they were "created
in 2011 to combat the growing epidemic of homelessness among American
Veterans, and Support Homeless Veterans (SHV) is devoted to bringing
quality of life to these forgotten heroes. They are committed to
promoting purpose driven lives among our nation's finest men and women,
while increasing the awareness and involvement of our
communities."There are two sides to this year's project: winter clothing and food baskets for Thanksgiving, and donations for both can be made to the same donation boxes located in each of the Conicelli showrooms in Conshohocken and Springfield.
Winter clothing: Please donate coats for men and women, gloves, hats, scarves, and socks.
Thanksgiving food baskets: Please donate boxed or canned non-perishable items only.
The collection boxes will be in the showrooms through November 25, 2013. Mention this effort to your friends, neighbors, and co-workers, too! Let's all do our part to help those who have done theirs.
