Jevic to Help Fill 'Stockings for Kids'; Partners with Salvation Army, B101, and NBC10 for Holiday Fundraiser DELANCO, N.J., Nov. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- For the third year in a row, Burlington County-based Jevic Transportation, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SCS Transportation (NASDAQ:SCST), will partner with local Philadelphia radio station B101, TV affiliate NBC10, and the Salvation Army for the 9th annual "Stockings for Kids" fundraiser. As the program's official motor carrier, Jevic will pick up toys from designated drop-off locations and deliver them to the Salvation Army for distribution to underprivileged children in Philadelphia and the surrounding areas in time for the holidays. "Jevic is the true backbone of Stockings for Kids," said B101 Event Manager Tim Davis. "Without their tireless efforts over the past three years, the program could not have experienced as much growth as it has. Everyone at Jevic should feel like Santa Claus because together, we help make the holidays a brighter time for thousands of kids across the Delaware Valley." "Stockings for Kids is an extremely worthwhile program that helps to bring joy to the lives of disadvantaged children during the holiday season," said Jevic President and CEO Paul Karvois. "We are pleased to see the community respond so generously each year, and are proud to be able to participate in the way that we know best - providing safe and secure transport for needed goods. We're confident that the community will pull together to help B101 reach its goal." B101 launched "Stockings for Kids" in 1996 as a school-focused fundraiser. The station distributed empty stockings to Philadelphia-area schools, asking students to help fill the stockings with new toys for needy local children. That first year, thousands of children, parents and teachers contributed over 15,000 stockings, totaling $160,000 in donations. Since then, "Stockings for Kids" has generated over $5 million in toys and donations, and has grown into a movement that includes thousands of individuals, schools, corporations and community groups. The organization's goal this year is to collect over 75,000 toys and stockings (or approximately $1.5 million). Jevic Transportation is a fully integrated, multi-regional motor carrier, providing Next Day, Regional, National, Canadian LTL, and selected truckload services. The company offers convenient, customized solutions and best of class products and services to its customers through its Breakbulk-Free(R) operating network from facilities across the United States.
