Jevic to Help Fill 'Stockings for Kids'; Partners with Salvation
Army, B101, and NBC10 for Holiday Fundraiser
DELANCO, N.J., Nov. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- For the third year in a row, Burlington
County-based Jevic Transportation, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SCS
Transportation (NASDAQ:SCST), will partner with local Philadelphia radio
station B101, TV affiliate NBC10, and the Salvation Army for the 9th annual
"Stockings for Kids" fundraiser. As the program's official motor carrier,
Jevic will pick up toys from designated drop-off locations and deliver them to
the Salvation Army for distribution to underprivileged children in Philadelphia
and the surrounding areas in time for the holidays.
"Jevic is the true backbone of Stockings for Kids," said B101 Event Manager Tim
Davis. "Without their tireless efforts over the past three years, the program
could not have experienced as much growth as it has. Everyone at Jevic should
feel like Santa Claus because together, we help make the holidays a brighter
time for thousands of kids across the Delaware Valley."
"Stockings for Kids is an extremely worthwhile program that helps to bring joy
to the lives of disadvantaged children during the holiday season," said Jevic
President and CEO Paul Karvois. "We are pleased to see the community respond
so generously each year, and are proud to be able to participate in the way
that we know best - providing safe and secure transport for needed goods.
We're confident that the community will pull together to help B101 reach its
goal."
B101 launched "Stockings for Kids" in 1996 as a school-focused fundraiser. The
station distributed empty stockings to Philadelphia-area schools, asking
students to help fill the stockings with new toys for needy local children.
That first year, thousands of children, parents and teachers contributed over
15,000 stockings, totaling $160,000 in donations. Since then, "Stockings for
Kids" has generated over $5 million in toys and donations, and has grown into a
movement that includes thousands of individuals, schools, corporations and
community groups. The organization's goal this year is to collect over 75,000
toys and stockings (or approximately $1.5 million).
Jevic Transportation is a fully integrated, multi-regional motor carrier,
providing Next Day, Regional, National, Canadian LTL, and selected truckload
