Chrysler signs on to help Chicago food drive

Chrysler Group is working with the 2010 Chicago Auto Show’s Food Drive and A Safe Haven Foundation to benefit Haiti earthquake victims and Chicago’s Homeless. The expanded food drive began yesterday at the more than 40 Metro-Chicago Chrysler Group dealerships. Those making a donation of at least three cans of food will receive discount tickets to the 2010 Chicago Auto Show. The drive will run through February 19 and donations can be made at the show on February 17, 18 and 19 in the main hall of the McCormick Center.

“Chrysler is dedicated to serving the communities in which we live and work,” said Lewis Scott, Director of Chrysler’s Midwest Business Center. “We are so proud to continue our partnership with A Safe Haven Foundation and the great work they do everyday to feed the people of Chicago and most recently, the victims of the earthquakes in Haiti.”

This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Chicago Auto Show food drive. To date more than 300,000 pounds of food have been collected through the program and distributed to local food pantries through A Safe Haven Foundation.
