With more than $20 million raised for local schools and
community nonprofit organizations, Ford's Drive 4 UR School and Drive 4 UR
Community fundraising programs have been hugely successful as we look to give
back to our drivers and our homes. During our annual "Drive 4 UR"
events, each Ford dealership gives $20 to local schools and organizations for each
qualified test-drive that occurs during the event. It's a great way to get
people excited about the newest Ford models, while also
advancing our communities as a whole.
Stoneham Ford has proudly contributed to this total through
our Drive 4 Ur School campaign benefitting Stoneham High School. Now, we're
happy to reveal that our donation of more than $3,000 from our event last
October has helped provide Stoneham High School students with a new water
filtration system that will help keep students happy and healthy, while
reducing plastic bottle use and making the school more eco-friendly. Students
elected to have the donation spent on the new water filtration system, which
will be installed in place of a broken water bubbler this coming spring.
"We're happy to hear that Stoneham High School is
putting the donation from the Drive 4 UR School event to such good use,"
said John Melkonian, general manager at Stoneham Ford. "We know that the
Stoneham community is a huge part of what's made us so successful, and giving
back to our schools is a great feeling."
We're always looking for ways to give back to the community
at our Massachusetts Ford dealership,
and when our commitment to our community also encourages Ford fans to come
test-drive our cars, trucks and SUVs, we say that's all the better!
