VanDevere Donates to American Red Cross Hurricane Relief Fund
VANDEVERE GIVES BACK!
Thank you to all customers who participated in giving back to victims of Hurricane Milton and Hurricane Helene. We are always grateful for the opportunities to give back to those who need it most. The hurricane’s damaged homes, businesses, families and more. VanDevere wanted to support the people effected by these storms.
VanDevere decided to take action by donating $10 for every customer who came in for an oil change between October 14th-October 31st. During this time, all stores had a combined total of 1,672 customers get their oil change completed. Since we completed this many services, VanDevere donated a total of $16,720 to the American Red Cross Hurricane Relief Fund! Again, thank you to all who participated. We are always happy to give back to those in need.
