Fordham Toyota donates van to church after theft
Fordham Toyota donated a van to a church whose 1997 Dodge minivan was stolen a few weeks ago.
The van was stolen from Good News Christian Church in Norwood and was found stripped and totaled in Soundview. When Fordham Toyota caught wind of the news, they decided to take action.
"I've never done something like this before, so it was hard to break the ice and say 'I want to donate a van,'" says Frank Greco, of Fordham Toyota.
James Miller, pastor of the church, says he has been nothing but thankful to those who have helped him throughout this whole process.
