Junk my Car recently helped out our team in the Philippines. They endured a natural disaster and lost many of their possessions. To help give back, employees raised as many donations within the company as we could, so that they could restore the necessities that they had lost. We knew that the contribution would not restore all the memorable items that they had, but it would restore what they needed to live and move on with. To add to the generosity the company matched all the donations we had contributed for this unfortunate event. They were very pleased at how giving and caring we were to their situation.

This holiday season a couple of the Junk my Car employees held a food drive. Once again we were lending that helping hand to families in need of a decent Thanksgiving dinner. As a company we donated 2 boxes filled with food so that others may enjoy their holiday meal as anyone should.

Junk my Car has also recently participated to help donate to the Special Olympics. There was a charitable event called the Penguin Plunge held in East Haven Town Beach, CT on December 5th, 2009. Every person that participated would bring in $50 towards the charity. Everyone would have to dive into the frigid cold beach water then come right out. Many of us at Junk my Car joined in this event, and all dived in with much pride. Personally, this had to be the most exhilarating thing I have done yet. Yes, it was crazy, but something that I will always have as an exciting story and has been an experience that I will forever cherish because it was for a great cause.

We are a vehicle removal and recycling service, but we want to touch lives as well. Our company wants to set an example, opening the eyes of people so that they may all help go that extra mile with their customers, the community, and the world so we can look back and be proud of what we have accomplished. With great dignity and pride I can say that I work for a company that goes that extra mile.
