Toyota/Lexus Minority Owners Dealership Association to Sponsor National 'COVID-19 Day of Service' on May 22


BOWIE, Md., May 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Toyota/Lexus Minority Owners Dealership Association (TLMODA) is working with The Salvation Army to fill the pantries of families in need during the coronavirus pandemic. On May 22, 2020, TLMODA Dealers and The Salvation Army will distribute more than 4,800 packages in 24 communities throughout the country.

"The coronavirus pandemic has left many families vulnerable and in a state of economic instability," says TLMODA Board President Ed Fitzpatrick. "The COVID-19 Day of Service represents the TLMODA member's collective compassion and responsibility to give back to the community."

During TLMODA's National COVID-19 Day of Service, Toyota and Lexus dealership staff will distribute grocery boxes of non-perishable items like boxes of cereal and canned goods to help feed a family of four, for a week.  Items for the grocery boxes will be packed and assembled by local Salvation Army teams in accordance with safety guidelines from local, state and federal health officials.

The Salvation Army is helping identify families in need of food and instructing them to visit one of the participating Toyota or Lexus dealerships to pick up their grocery box.  In order to maintain proper social distance protocols, boxes will be placed in the trunk of each family's vehicle on a first-come, first-served basis until supplies are exhausted.  All families must contact their local Salvation Army to qualify for a grocery box.  

"Across the country, the economic impact of this pandemic continues to impact families, both those who were already experiencing the challenges of poverty, and some who are experiencing them for the first time," said David Hudson, National Commander of The Salvation Army. "We are extremely grateful for the support of organizations like TLMODA so we can continue to meet the evolving needs of the most vulnerable."
