The Blue Springs Toyota Plant is making steps to help the community during the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to Communications Manager Kathryn Ragsdale, the plant has donated thousands of dollars towards community support, and is offering help to others in need.
“Toyota is really dedicated to making sure we do all that we can do in the community, especially during this COVID crisis,” Ragsdale stated.
