Annual Food for Oil Campaign: Donate food, get a free oil change

ASHEBORO — Thomas Tire & Automotive, a family-owned business serving North Carolina for more than 40 years, has launched its 14th annual Food For Oil Campaign to support local food banks. 

Throughout November, customers who donate 25 non-perishable food items at any Thomas Tire & Automotive location will receive a free Premium Oil Change valued at $39.99. 

Those who do not need an immediate oil change will receive a gift card of equal value for future use.

Since its inception, the Food For Oil campaign has donated more than 200,000 food items to local pantries, helping support families in need during the holiday season.

“Food for Oil is something our whole team stands behind. We’ve seen the impact it makes for families, especially during the holidays. Our staff and customers are part of this community, and we’re proud to give back,” said Eric Arnold, General Manager.

This year, donations will support several organizations, including:

■ The Salvation Army of Asheboro.

■ The Blessing Pantry at Randleman First Wesleyan Church.

■ Community Outreach of Archdale and Trinity.

■ The Guilford County Reentry Center. 

■ West End Ministries (High Point).

■ The Little Portion Food Pantry (Burlington).

■ Pastor’s Pantry at New Covenant (Aberdeen).
