July 23, 2013—Federated Auto Parts members and suppliers recently made a $135,000 donation to the Toys for Tots program.
The donation was from money pledged at the annual Federated Toys for Tots auction held during the Federated annual awards dinner.
“Our auction is just the first step in what we expect to be another great year of collecting toys and donations for Toys for Tots,” said Mike Schultz of Federated Auto Parts. “Last year many of our members implemented donation programs at their stores and we anticipate very strong participation this November and December.”
Federated said stores will accept toy donations at their locations again this year, and financial contributions can also be made on the Federated website.
