Nu-Look Collision Employees Deliver one Ton of
Food Collected for Foodlink to Help Out
the Rochester Community
ROCHESTER, NY, December 17th, 2008 -- Nu-Look Collision Centers drove several truck loads of food and non-food donations to help out with Rochester's Foodlink, with donations collected since the official employee food-drive kick-off November 24. The trucks were unloaded at the Foodlink docks, 936 Exchange St., by seven Nu-Look employees. The final truck-load tipped the scales at 1,790 pounds - almost a ton of food and non-food items.
Employees Driving Community Awareness
The Foodlink barrels have been at all 7 Nu-Look Collision locations since the November 24th employee kick-off, with an additional donation boost from the Nu-Look Collision web-site and television ads to help further promote the company-wide Foodlink collection effort.
"Our employees truly have rallied around this food-drive to help out those in need", says Paul Zelter, General Manager of the Nu-Look Collision Irondequoit center.
Nu-Look Collision Centers is actively involved in several community programs such as the Ronald MacDonald House and Golisano's Children's Hospital at Strong. For several years, Nu-Look employees from the various centers have worked together to refurbish more than a dozen vehicles that were deemed total losses, and made them like 'Nu'. The restored vehicles have been given to recipients at such organizations as ABW, Blessed Sacrament Church, and Wilson Commencement Park. This year, having enough food to eat has become an even greater need across the country. Says owner Jeff DiFulvio,
"This past year, what with the current economic situation, we thought that helping out the Rochester community with food made more sense - and we chose Foodlink as they do an excellent job making sure that those in need are helped out."
