H&V Collision Centers Donates Recycled Ride to Needy Community Member

Donation marks shop's third annual gift of a car to a local person in need.

H&V Collision Centers partnered with Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Albany (CCDA) and State Farm to donate a refurbished vehicle to a needy community member as part of the 2012 Recycled Rides Program.

A late-model Toyota Camry was donated to a woman and her two sons, who were referred to the program by a local social services agency for assistance. The donation is the third annual gift of a car to a needy person by H&V Collision Centers.

This year’s donation was made at the new Saratoga location on State Route 50. Obtained in 2011 by H&V, the former All-Star Chevrolet is the fourth location to be opened by the family-run business.
