Staff Report From Savannah CEO

Monday, October 2nd, 2017

NRAM Collision Center, owned by Peacock Automotive, will collect donations for disaster relief efforts to help the citizens of Puerto Rico. A 53-foot trailer was brought to the Collision Center, located on S.C. 170 in Ridgeland, S.C., and will be available for community members to deliver donations until Thursday, Oct. 12.

Wish list items for this donation drive include nonperishable foods, general medical supplies, flashlights, batteries, bug repellent, garbage bags, camping cots, canned dog and cat food, gas generators, and hygiene items. Cash donations will also be accepted.

Joanie Iaco, NRAM Collision Center manager said, “One of our technicians at the Collision Center, Pedro Coriano, has three family members who lost their homes in Puerto Rico. At Peacock Automotive, we support all of our team members and their families, and we hope the community will rally to support this cause as well.”

The donation collection is being organized by Coriano’s church, El Santuario De Savannah. This container is one of eight placed around Savannah and Hilton Head. Once filled, the trailer will be shipped to Puerto Rico through the Port of Savannah.

The former New River Auto Mall, established in 2002, is doing business as “Peacock Auto Mall.” As part of the Peacock Auto Mall, the NRAM Collision Center will be rebranding to Peacock Collision Center later this month. The street address is 1667 N. Okatie Highway, Ridgeland, S.C., 29936.
