SAN ANTONIO, TX (September 18, 2017) VP Racing Fuels, known for its high-performance consumer automotive and powersport products is donating 20,000 t-shirts to the hurricane stricken area through its affiliation with the United Way of Texas (www.uwtexas.org). It’s a small way for VP to help a region that expects close to half-a-million people to seek disaster assistance because flooding drove them from their homes and neighborhoods.
Alan Cerwick, President of VP Racing Fuels states: “As a local Texas based manufacturer that supports our residents and with employees that have family and regional ties to the affected area, being able to provide clothing for our community in a time of need in the Houston area is just a friendly gesture on our part to help residents affected by this tragic event. We ask anyone and any regional business to take our lead and contact the United Way and give whatever you can to those who need it most.”
