National Guard Families Holidays Support Drive

Central Valley Coyotes News Release
Fresno County Fire Protection District/CAL FIRE Fresno/Kings Unit will be teaming up with the Central Valley Coyotes, Steve Philhart (The Barbarian of the Raider Nation), along with other local supporters to collect donations, and participate in two Collection Drives over the holidays. All donations will be given to the Pantry at the Fresno National Guard Office.
The Pantry provides support to the families of deployed National Guard Members. Usually the family member that is deployed is the main income provider. The families take on a huge sacrifice that usually affects them financially.
From now until Christmas we will be accepting donations at every staffed station in the Fresno County Fire Protection District, CAL FIRE Fresno/Kings Unit. Food donations are encouraged to be food for the holidays; preferably non-perishable food items, Grocery Store Gift Cards, or anything else a family may need. Any cash donations will be converted into Grocery Store Gift Cards. Gift Cards can also be purchased at Kohl's Department Store.
The Thanksgiving Drive will be held on Friday November 21, 2008 and Saturday November 22, 2008 from 7:00 am to 9:00 pm both days at the Kohl's parking lot located at 175 E. Alluvial Ave. Fresno, in the River Park area. This will be a drop off point for any donations.
This is an excellent opportunity not only to help those in our communities, but to help the families of those that are sacrificing so much in our military. Special Thanks to Kohl's Department Store, BJ's Brewery and the Central Valley Coyotes for their help.
