A few months ago, University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Head Football Coach, Pat Cerroni, visited our office to present “Coaching Leaders” to Team DealerFire. While here, he mentioned a local food drive opportunity and encouraged our company to get involved. As a result, we are honored to be included in the 2013 “Oshkosh Scares Out Hunger” program.
Held between October 25-30, several community businesses partnered with the UWO Athletics Department in collecting non-perishable food donations. These would be accepted at drop-off locations around the city in support of the Oshkosh Area Community Pantry. But the fun doesn’t stop there for DealerFire, as staff continues to bring items into the office in a bit of friendly competition between departments.
The carry-over event kicked off on Halloween day with a truly scary office costume party and will end at end of business on Thursday, November 7th. Each department has been gathering items separately to compete and the unit who supplies the highest average items per employee earns lunch for their entire team! All donated items will be given to the UWO food trailer that Coach Cerroni and the football team are running.
As employees clean out their cupboards and shop for a few extra cans at the grocery store this week, you can also help! Just ‘like’ us on Facebook and cheer your favorite department HERE!
While all in good fun, we are also humbled by the chance to make a small positive impact and, in this month of Thanksgiving, are grateful to our local community services who service those in need every day.
Now let’s go blow the doors off that trailer!
