"Our men and women in the armed forces sacrifice so much for us every day," said Doug Timmerman, regional vice president for Ally Financial. "It is a privilege and honor to stand with Jay Automotive Group and contribute to such an outstanding community cause, both financially and through our employee volunteer efforts."
This is the third time Ally has partnered with Operation Homefront to provide essential items to families of military personnel. Ally also partnered with Operation Homefront Oklahoma last December to provide holiday gifts and meals to Oklahoma military families.
"It's so important to show our appreciation for the commitment and sacrifice made by our active duty and National Guard personnel," said Jay Stelzenmuller, president and dealer principal at Jay Automotive Group. "We're so pleased to work with Ally and Operation Homefront to host this wonderful event and get involved in this valuable community effort."
