Car Wash at Brightway in Marshfield on May 18th will Raise Funds for a Life-Saving Defibrillator

USA (SANEPR.com) May 15, 2008 -- For every vehicle washed, Brightway is donating $5 which will be put towards the purchase of a defibrillator for the non-profit Boys and Girls Club of Marshfield.

During the fundraiser, the South Shore Corvette Club will have 25 Corvettes on display and there will be plenty of hot dogs, popcorn and balloons for the kids.

Everyone having their car washed will be entered into a raffle to win Red Sox tickets, auto detailing and a book of car washes.

“We like working with non-profits. We’re pleased to be able to help out the Boys and Girls Club with our professional car wash service that is better for the environment than the old-fashioned hose-style car washes,” noted Paul Vercallone of Verc Rentals and Brightway Car Wash.

Brightway Car Wash is environmentally friendly and renowned for its “Green Theme”. According to Vercallone, Brightway is “very stingy with water” as they do not want to waste water and Brightway disposes of waste water properly.

“We’re very grateful to Paul Vercallone, Brightway and the South Shore Corvette Club for their involvement and effort in raising the necessary funds so we can have a defibrillator on-site in case of an emergency,” noted Greg Jackson, Executive Director of the Boys and Girls Club of Marshfield.

The 1,000 member strong Boys and Girls Club of Marshfield provides the area’s youth between the ages of 6-18 with enrichment and recreation programs in a safe environment.
