LIVONIA RESIDENT'S SUPPORT OF SALVATION ARMY IS REWARDED

Salvation Army Bed & Bread Club supporter rewarded.



Nancy Sinelli’s intent on the morning of February 22 wasn’t
to soon take delivery of a 2013 Ford Fusion. 
She simply wanted to support The Salvation Army’s Bed & Bread Club
with a donation during WJR’s 16-hour Radiothon.

But Nancy’s generosity was rewarded by The Suburban Collection when she was
randomly selected from the thousands of WJR listeners and Salvation Army
supporters who made a donation or stopped by WJR’s live broadcast that day at
the Oakland Mall.

“I was really was surprised by a messagel I received from a Salvation Army
representative following the Radiothon as I had called in my donation early that
morning and wasn’t aware that The Suburban Collection was donating a two-year
lease of a new Fusion,” Sinelli said. “Then I got a call from Nicole Elder at Suburban Ford of Sterling Heights and I knew the message from the Salvation Army wasn’t a prank.  Needless to say, I was delighted.”

A Livonia resident and a past contributor to the Salvation Army’s Radiothon,
Nancy recently took delivery of her new Ford Fusion.  The two-year lease was donated by Suburban Ford of Sterling Heights and Suburban Ford of Waterford.

The 26th anniversary broadcast of The Salvation Army Bed & Bread Club Radiothon
raised over 1.3 million dollars in this single day effort.  The Bed & Bread Club feeds more than 1.8 million individuals and shelters more than 148,000 annually.
