WLR Automotive Group's 12th Annual Feeding Families Initiative

Providing Thanksgiving for Families in Need

FREDERICK, Md., Nov. 7, 2024 WLR Automotive Group is proud to continue its 12th annual Feeding Families initiative, a program rooted in the company's mission, Changing Lives, One Neighbor at a Time. This Thanksgiving season, WLR plans to provide full holiday meals for 100 families in need—a meaningful increase from the 85 families served last year.

Feeding Families baskets are stationed at every WLR location, including our corporate office, where we are collecting nonperishable goods through November 17. Thanks to the generosity of our customers, employees, and community, we are on track to make this Thanksgiving a time of joy and abundance for local families facing tough times.

"Our community's incredible generosity empowers us to fill each Feeding Families basket with everything needed for a memorable Thanksgiving meal," says Jennifer Nugent, Community Engagement Manager at WLR Automotive Group.

"Our community's incredible generosity empowers us to fill each Feeding Families basket with everything needed for a memorable Thanksgiving meal," says Jennifer Nugent, Community Engagement Manager at WLR Automotive Group. "Along with the food essentials, we include items to create a welcoming table—like a tablecloth, napkins, plates, and plasticware—and a gift card for a turkey. Our goal is to give each family a complete Thanksgiving experience that they can
enjoy together."

For more than a decade, the Feeding Families initiative has touched the lives of countless recipients, including local families facing difficult times, as well as organizations such as The Boys and Girls Club, local churches, and schools.

"Our employees take pride in being part of a company that is genuinely dedicated to supporting the communities we serve," says Randall S. Simpson, President and CEO of WLR Automotive Group. "Feeding Families is more than just a program; it's a reflection of our core values and a testament to our enduring commitment to helping others."

The ongoing growth of the Feeding Families initiative speaks to WLR's dedication to uplifting the community and spreading kindness during the holiday season. With the support of employees and community members, WLR Automotive Group is ready to make this Thanksgiving season warmer, brighter, and more hopeful for those who need it most.
