Local auto parts supplier, Auto Zone is ramping up efforts to help those affected by Hurricane Irma.

AutoZone HR adviser Erika Abraham, says the AutoZone Distribution Center in Lavonia is partnering with several locations in Toccoa and Lavonia to collect bottled water.

Donations of bottled water may be dropped off at the Auto Zone stores in Toccoa and Lavonia, as well as Lavonia Foods.

Once all of the water is collected, it will be loaded onto Auto Zone distribution trucks and carried to Florida and parts of Georgia where it’s needed, according to Abraham.

In Toccoa, you can drop off your donations of water at the Auto Zone store on Big A Road.
