Third Annual Coat Drive a Record Breaker for Volt Consulting MSP?
Managed Service Program Provider’s Support of One Warm Coat Promises Bountiful Haul
New York, NY
December 23, 2009
For the third year in a row, the employees of Volt Consulting™ - Managed Service Programs are collecting new or gently used outerwear at the company’s many locations coast to coast. The coats are donated to the One Warm Coat organization who distributes them to those in need. With the economy suffering and unemployment near record levels, the number of families living in or near poverty has swelled, making this year’s coat drive even more critical than in years past.
Volt Consulting has collected more than five hundred coats over the past two years. To date, donations this year are on pace to exceed the coats collected annually over the past two years. Breaking that mark has become the goal according to Volt Consulting’s Director of Marketing, Gino Hawley.
“Our first annual coat drive was in support of a local New York charity, New York Cares,” said Hawley. “But when our colleagues in the midwest and northwestern regions of the US heard about the campaign, they were eager to participate and contribute. So last year, we partnered with the One Warm Coat organization which has a national distribution network. Volt Consulting personnel in other US cities are also participating, making this a truly national effort and one that impacts positively on the communities in every locale where Volt Consulting has operations.”
This year’s coat drive will conclude on December 30th. If you would like to donate new or gently used outerwear, you can contact Volt Consulting MSP at (877) 835-7524.
