Miller on Van Nuys is hosting a blood drive on August 12, 2008 from 10am-4pm in the Arc Blood Mobile on Van Nuys Blvds, in front of Miller Infiniti. All donors will receive a $5 gift certificate to Pick up Stix.

Top 10 reasons to donate:

10. You will get free juice and cookies.
9. You will weigh less ; one pint less when you leave than when you came in.
8. It's easy and convenient ; it only takes about an hour and you can make the donation at a donor center, or at one of the many Red Cross mobile blood drives.
7. It's something you can spare ; most people have blood to spare... yet, there is still not enough to go around.
6. Nobody can ask you to do any heavy lifting as long as you have the bandage on. You can wear it for as long as you like. It's your badge of honor.
5. You will walk a little taller afterwards ; you will feel good about yourself.
4. You will be helping to ensure that blood is there when you or someone close to you may need it. Most people don't think they'll ever need blood, but many do.
3. It's something you can do on equal footing with the rich and famous ; blood is something money can't buy. Only something one person can give to another.
2. You will be someone's hero ; you may give a newborn, a child, a mother or a father, a brother, or a sister another chance at life. In fact, you may help save up to three lives with just one donation.
1. It's the right thing to do.

Miller on Van Nuy's first pet adoption was a hit!

Miller Honda, Miller Nissan, and Miller Infiniti's pet adoption at Van Nuys Sherman Oaks Park had a great turnout! Volunteers and animals from Kinder 4 rescue, Pet orphans of Southern California, Saving Grace LA, Life 4 Paws, Daphneyland Basset Rescue, and East Valley Animal Shelter took over the grass field in front of the senior center at the Van Nuys Sherman Oaks park. Even before the event had started, swarms of people had come over to support the destitute animals of Southern California. We've had an overwhelming turnout of approximately 500 people! With their help, we've managed to find loving homes for over 40 animals along with applications for adopting additional animals. Miller Nissan Van Nuys would like to thank each and everyone of you that came to support our pet adoption. Together we can make a difference.

Food Drive 5/1/08-5/31/08

Miller Nissan Van Nuys is hosting a Food Drive!

It's time for a Food Drive! Miller Nissan Van Nuys will be holding a food drive from May 1, 2008 through May 31, 2008 to help the Los Angeles Regional Foodbank. This is a great chance to make a difference in our community. I encourage you to join us in our efforts to help our less fortunate neighbors.

The food and funds we raise will help the Foodbank supply food to over 1,000 charitable agency sites that provide food to low-income children, families, senior citizens and individuals in need throughout Los Angeles County.

One in four children in Los Angeles live at or below the poverty line. Of the households served by the Foodbank, 42 percent have one or more adults in the workforce. Yet thousands of these families are still forced to choose between paying the rent and buying groceries.

In the past year, the Foodbank distributed 41 million pounds of food. This year their goal is to collect 44 million pounds of food. Your help and contribution is vitally important.

Here are ways to contribute to this months Food Drive:
Donate nonperishable food items in the Foodbank located in the Miller Nissan Van Nuys facilities during the drive. To follow this months theme, "Break the Fast," Think of foods you would like to eat for breakfast, like:

*Canned Fruit
*Cereal
*Oatmeal
*Pancake Mix
*Syrup
*Breakfast Squares
*Cereal Bars
*Coffee
*Tea
*Powdered Milk


Thank you for your help!
