✬ Shirts 4 Charity – a note from Bob Smith ✬



Has anyone ever said this to you, “Alright, keep your shirt on.” That's usually when you're losing control of a situation. I think my Mom said that to me a couple of times. Right now Advantage Toyota wants to keep their shirt on and wants you to do some judging. The people at Advantage really enjoyed the recent PATH to the Cure 5K walk/run that raised tons of money for our community. As a way of expressing that charitable desire all the guys and gals at Advantage wore a custom designed shirt with the theme, “We wear pink for our community.” Now we want to expand this adventure a little further. We've picked out four local charities and want to know from you which charity's shirt you would like to see us wear next. Soon, we will post pictures of the shirt designs so you can vote by liking your favorite. Here are the four charities we have chosen.

Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Tri-State, Inc. provides housing for the families of children who have been hospitalized facing serious health problems. It is a home away from home, a place of refuge from nearby hospitals.

Hospice of Huntington helps people with serious illnesses live life to the fullest while undergoing their intense health struggles. The house provides a spectacular setting that brings comfort to the patient and the family.

Lily's Place is a brand new pediatric addiction center in Huntington which offers babies from drug addicted mothers a chance to live and recover from something they didn't ask for.

Huntington Museum of Art has long been the cultural highlight for residents and visitors alike in the Tri-State area. For more than 60 years the museum has brought the finest in the world of art to the local area.

So be on the lookout for future postings as “Shirts 4 Charity” gains full steam. We will also be giving you additional information about each of the charities we have chosen. In the meantime, “Keep your shirt on.”
