LAKEPORT, Calif. – Economy Propane has provided propane service to homes, farms, and businesses to the communities it serves for many years. With the help of local residents, Economy Propane plans to deliver more than just propane this holiday season.

Economy Propane is collecting new and gently used costs, hats, scarves, and gloves this year and putting them into the hands of less fortunate members of our community.

Donations can be given to Economy Propane deliverymen or brought to the Economy Propane office at 2305 S. Main St. in Lakeport through Dec. 30.

At the end of the coat drive, Economy Propane will donate items collected to one or more local charities.

“Economy Propane is proud to provide a product that helps keep people in our community warm and provides some comfort in their lives,” said Andy Fellman, Economy Propane’s local director of operations. “But we realize that too many local residents will struggle to stay warm this winter because they don’t have an adequate coat. Our goal is to help provide one to as many people here as possible. Thanks to the generous members of our community, we look forward to doing just that.”

Fellman said local residents do not have to be customers of Economy Propane to participate in the coat drive.
