VDF Tornado Drive Thanks You!!

THANK YOU to everyone who made Van Drunen Ford's Donation Drive a Success! On Wednesday November 20th Van Drunen Ford's Salesman Dave "Redd" Walker drove a 16 Foot Box Truck Full of Donations to the Red Cross Donation Center in Peoria to help the Tornado Ravished Areas on Washington/Pekin/Peoria Illinois.

Van Drunen Ford is still collecting Donations for Coal City and Diamond Illinois until 5pm on Friday November 22nd, 2013.

They are looking for:

Winter Clothes
Clildren's Toys
Diapers
New (In the package) Underware and Socks
Coats, Hats, Gloves
Blankets
Non-Perishable food items
Cleaning Supplies
Pet Food (can't forget our Fuzzy Victims!!)
Toiletries
Paper Towels

Basically think "If my house was blown away today and I lost everyone, what Basic Needs would I have right now".

Donations can be dropped off in the Showroom at Van Drunen Ford located just West of Kedzie Ave on 183rd Street, 3233 183rd Street, Homewood, IL. 60430

You can View Pictures of our Donation Progress on their Website at www.VanDrunenFord.com and also be sure to "Like" Van Drunen Ford on Facebook.
