Thousands of New Yorkers will be forced to make a choice this winter between buying a warm coat and putting food on the table, heating their homes, or meeting other basic survival needs. That’s why the Greater New York Automobile Dealers Association has teamed up with New York Cares to collect gently used winter coats to distribute to men, women and children who would otherwise go cold. Long Island’s Rallye Auto Group has generously donated 200 new coats to kick-start the auto dealers’ campaign. Last year, GNYADA collected over 4,000 coats. 60 auto dealers have already signed-up to help.
