Second Annual Langeman Manufacturing Can Drive Helps Locally and Globally

[11/14/2011] LEAMINGTON, Ontario, Canada – For the second year, Langeman Manufacturing has partnered with the Leamington Goodfellows to become a drop-off depot for canned goods donations that will be included in this year’s Christmas hampers distributed to area families.

In addition to accepting canned goods on behalf of the Goodfellows, Langeman Manufacturing will donate $1 for every can received to help locally and globally through two non-profit organizations. Half of the funds will benefit the Goodfellows campaign, with the other half being donated to Samaritan’s Purse International Relief.

In its inaugural year Langeman Manufacturing donated over 200 cans to Goodfellows while also helping those in need within the community and around the world. They hope to double those totals during the 2011 campaign.

“Langeman supports numerous charitable initiatives during the year and during the Christmas Season, we especially want to remember the people in our community as well as around the world who are in need,” said Gary Langeman, President of Langeman Manufacturing.

Residents are invited to drop off their canned goods at Langeman Manufacturing, 56 Oak Street East, Leamington, between 9am and 4pm Monday through Friday. Donations will be received until Friday, December 9, 2011.
