This is a testament to the kind of business Jimmie and Bailie have run for years and the respect Afford It Tires Sanger tx has earned from fellow businesses. It’s GOOD to be GOOD!

For those of you that don’t know, a local Sanger business that has treated this town so well & has been a huge aspect retired today and has allowed us to continue their services.

Gentles Oil & Tires as of 5 o clock today closed their doors. The name Gentle has been apart of Sanger since 1898. From hardware to grocery and currently oil and tires, they have serviced this community for a long time. We are blessed that they have asked us to take over and we cannot wait for this next step. The Gentles family is in our prayers for the next step in their lives and we appreciate them so much.

We will be opening AFFORD IT OIL & AUTO at the Gentles location at 504 Bolivar Street on November 1st. Oil changes will be immediate & brakes and alignments will follow soon. We will not be doing tires at the bolivar location but will still be helping with all your tire needs at our location at 300 South Stemmons.

We can’t wait for this expansion for our business and family to serve our community in a different aspect.
Please help us share this post to get the word out.
Also please if you see Randy or Michael give them a thank you.

💛💜

Business Owners…. This is your chance to shape the future. SBCAF has always been about finding and empowering talent and skill that might not always be traditional.

To all you Sanger Area Business owners, we really need your input! Let me explain. In a new developing partnership with the school district and the Economic Development Corporation we are seeking input from area business owners and employers regarding a need (or future need) for a skilled workforce and what that might actually look like.

As you may or may not know, the Foundation works along side the school district to help not only financially support current student programs but also to help identify any potential new student programs the district can perhaps offer to our students. YOU as a business owner or employer know what skills you are looking for, which is WHY we are reaching out to you. The Sanger Economic Development Corporation works along side business owners which is exactly why your input is so valuable as we further develop this new exciting partnership with the school district. As the EDC Executive Director stated, " A steady pipeline of skilled employees at all levels is vital for economic development and benefits employers like you." Did you know that SISD already offers an excellent opportunity to recruit future talent? (Check out: https://www.sangerisd.net/departments/career-and-technical-education ) And with your insight into what that future talent might look like, the EDC and SISD can create workforce training programs that focus on the skills you find most essential.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO, is complete this quick survey so that the EDC can identify not only current workforce gaps but also help future develop these types of programs effectively. One more thing.... PLEASE SHARE with anyone else you feel might help identify areas that are noted on the survey. THANK YOU!!

On behalf of the Sanger Education Foundation, Sanger EDC, and SISD,

THANK YOU for your time and consideration in MAKING A DIFFERENCE. YOUR INPUT MATTERS!
