“This initiative is a great opportunity to give back to our local community, and continues our long history of supporting non-profits that provide hands-on help to people in need” said Albert Scaglione, CEO of Park West Gallery. “Since these are all items that can provide basic needs or improve someone’s quality of life, we are extending this support to a variety of organizations that can immediately provide assistance to others.” The first local Michigan donation was made on Friday, July 23rd to HAVEN in Pontiac, Michigan.
