Eshenaurs Fuels Holds 17th Annual
Blanket Drive for the Needy

Since 1993, “Eshenaurs Great Comfort Drive” has generated over 40,300 blanket donations for the less fortunate living in the Central Pennsylvania area. Every year the blankets are distributed to the Bethesda Mission, Goodwill Keystone Area, The Salvation Army and to other shelters located throughout the region.

Free Gas Grill Tank Fill-ups with
New Blanket Donation at Eshenaurs

Area residents can help others by donating a new blanket and help themselves to a free gas grill tank fill-up at Eshenaurs Fuels, Inc. on Saturday, Nov. 7 – the final day of the 17th Annual Great Comfort Drive.  Between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., Eshenaurs will provide free 20 lb. gas grill tank fill-ups to area residents who bring a new blanket donation to the company’s headquarters at 200 S. 41st St., Harrisburg.  Free hot dogs, drinks and chips will be offered.

“The heavy rain kept a lot of people from venturing out to take advantage of this offer during our recent Open House held on Oct. 17,” explained Eshenaurs Fuels Manager Dave Skoczynski.  “We decided to end the blanket drive by giving area residents another opportunity to help others and help themselves.”

The blankets collected during the five-week drive will be distributed to the Bethesda Mission, Goodwill Keystone Area, The Salvation Army and area shelters located throughout the mid-state area.
