Van Donation to Guru Nanaks Free Food Langar PG

Our Pre-Owned Manager Chris Vigue has a long-standing relationship in the community with RANJIT from the Guru Nanaks Free Food Langar PG! A Message from Chris Vigue:"I first got involved with Ranjit in November of 2015 helping feed 5 local elementary schools once a week on my own time as early as 6:00 am to get the van loaded with fresh fruit for delivery to local schools. This continued for 2 school years and any opportunity that was available I made sure to support this great cause which included my employer, friends, family, local businesses and churches as support. This continued throughout the years and enabled me to be a part of donating a van to him in DEC of 2016. Here we are 4 years later at my New employer PG FORD and still supporting GURU NANAKS FREE FOOD LANGAR with the donation of a TOYOTA SIENNA VAN to ensure safe travels for RANJIT and his beautiful family." Wishing you all the best RANJIT and we look forward to seeing how this helps the community. Huge thank you to Signtek Industries for the decals on the van!
