Socrates Gray, General Sales Manager of Sauers Ford Lincoln in Michigan City, stopped by Michigan City High School this week to present a check for $4,620 to the school, proceeds of the "Drive 4 UR School" test-drive fundraiser.
The MCHS chapter of the National Honor Society worked with Sauers Ford to bring the “Drive 4UR School” event to the high school this past August. For every qualified test drive completed, Ford donated $20 to the school. Test-drivers enjoyed getting behind the wheel of 15 new vehicles, including the Ford F-150 Super Duty, the Ford Edge Sport, and the Ford King Ranch F250.
Ford has offered the Drive 4UR School program for six years and has conducted over 4,700 events across the United States, raising over $20 million dollars for schools and programs. MCHS hopes to work with Sauers Ford again next year to earn up to $6,000 for the high school through this fundraiser, offering test drives of many top-of-the-line vehicles.
