BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:
"Part of the culture at The Ranch Harley Davidson and RV, is family, and so when we see somebody in need, we like to try to help out," The Ranch Harley Davidson, General Manager, Michael Fuchs said.
The Ranch RV and The Ranch Harley Davidson have teamed up to gather supplies for families struggling after the recent disasters caused by Hurricanes Milton and Helene.
"We know that some of those families down there were struggling just to make ends meet and then this happened, so we want to make sure that we try to do everything we can to take care of them," Fuchs said.
The general manager tells15ABC that he and his team are planning on driving these supplies up to those families personally.
And are asking our neighbors to donate essential items like...
"Paper goods, clothing. On the clothing, we need new, unfortunately, we can't take used down there. Waters, Gatorades, diapers, toiletries, anything like that, we're taking down there," Fuchs said.
"We're also taking flashlights, batteries, the solar charge packs to help, you know, charge up their cell phones, things of that nature," he said.
15ABC was filming the donation items at the front of the shop when Tracy Gillett stopped by to drop off some things.
She tells15ABC we've gotten through tough times before, and we can get through them again together.
"When one part of Texas suffers, the rest of Texas stands up and goes and gets it and we proved that through Harvey, we've proved that through Katrina and Rita," College Station resident, Tracy Gillett said.
And she think we should all do our part in helping, because we're all one big family.
"We're Americans, these are our brothers and sisters, they're hurting there, they have nothing we have everything, you know, I can take an hour, two days whatever out of my schedule to go help someone in need," Gillett said.
"I'm not gonna let you know inconvenience or fear get in the way of kindness," she said.
