Keeping those in need warm this season

January 31st, 2024 by

The winter weather has hit southwestern Pennsylvania and that means freezing temperatures and wind chill. Kenny Ross Auto and John Sisson retailers wanted to do their part to help those experiencing homelessness in the Pittsburgh area. For the second year, we partnered with Light of Life Mission to collect warm clothes for them to distribute to those who need them. Donations were accepted at all of our stores and we loaded up a van and took them to their facility at 655 Ridge Road in Pittsburgh. 

Light of Life Rescue Mission provides food, shelter, and hope to men, women, and children experiencing homelessness. What started as a soup kitchen in 1952 has turned into so much more for our community. They have expanded their services to include emergency services (shelter, laundry, showers, mental health services, etc.), food pantry, and long-term programming to help those people with their recovery. Some people have gone through the recovery program and are now working at the mission in the kitchen.
