Rye Auto Care Employee Relief Fund

My name is Richard Ferris, I own Rye Auto Care with two locations in Rye, NY.  My business has been essential in serving the community of Rye for over 30 years.  My loyal employees, some of whom have been with me from the beginning, are hardworking and have built relationships with our customers that are unmatched and irreplaceable. They each have their own families, most with small children, who rely on their employment as sole income. We are considered an essential business to service the community and therefore remain open during this unprecedented time but have had to cut everyone’s hours significantly.  This has been extremely challenging and brings a wave of worry to our team.  It has become increasingly disheartening being unable to continue to support my employees who work extremely hard to ensure our shops run seamlessly and provide our faithful customers with the utmost level of care and services. We are facing the possibility of closure due to the financial impact.  We have built our business in part because of the support of our loyal customers, and we are asking for your support now more than ever. We appreciate any donations we receive, which will go to supporting my employees and their families. We want nothing more than to continue to support our community and hope we are able to remain open in order to do so.  We are thinking of all of you during this immensely difficult time and hope you and your families are staying safe and healthy.
