Doug Smith Autoplex Helps Raise Money for Local School
American Fork - Doug Smith Autoplex helped raise $1,850 for Odyssey Charter School with Chrysler's Drive for the Kids™ program. The fundraising event was held on September 31st 2011.
160 participants earned a $10 contribution to the school from Doug Smith Autoplex by taking a brief test drive in a Town & Country, the company's award winning minivan. Doug Smith Autoplex supplied the vehicles, and volunteers from the dealership were on hand to assist in the fundraising drives.
"Drive for the kids is a mutually beneficial program. We're pleased to support our local schools, and enjoy demonstrating a terrific, world class product," said Joe Diregolo, Doug Smith Autoplex. "Parents are genuinely interested in testing our Chrysler minivan with all the advanced safety, technology, and economy features; and we are happy to help raise extra dollars for the school. We all work together for the kids. Everyone has a great time!"
Chrysler supports schools in the communities where the company does business. Since 1993, when Chrysler introduced Drive for the Kids, Chrysler dealers have worked with parents and educators in communities across the nation.
Chrysler has contributed an estimated $4 million, directly to local schools, for student needs from playgrounds and field trips to reading programs and computers. Chrysler is proud of this tradition of community involvement.
