Test drives will raise funds

NEGAUNEE — From 3-5 p.m. Wednesday, during an open house event at the school, Fox Negaunee Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram will host a Chrysler Cars 4 Classrooms fundraiser for Negaunee Middle School students.

During the Chrysler Cars 4 Classrooms event, parents and friends of the school, will have the opportunity to earn a $10 contribution, up to $2,000, for Negaunee Middle School students, by taking a brief test drive in the all-new Chrysler Pacifica and Pacifica Hybrid, the only hybrid minivan available on the market. Any licensed driver, age 18 or older, may drive and earn $10 on the school’s behalf. Fox Negaunee Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram will provide vehicles and staff to assist drivers with fundraising test drives and any questions they may have.

The Chrysler brand will also offer Negaunee Middle School a chance to earn an additional $1,000 and be entered into a grand prize sweepstakes for up to $7,000 in additional funding, by simply sharing photos from the event on a public Facebook account within one week of the fundraiser’s date and incorporating the provided customized hashtag #NMSPacificaContest for Negaunee Middle School and tagging @Chrysler. The contest ends Wednesday, Sept. 5.

“For 25 years, The Chrysler brand has been helping to raise money for elementary schools like Negaunee Middle School,” said Great Lakes Business Center Regional Director, Jeff Hines in a press release. “The Chrysler Cars 4 Classrooms event will offer Negaunee parents and families a chance to experience the capabilities of the all-new Chrysler Pacifica and Pacifica Hybrid minivan, conveniently while attending an event in support of a cause that is personal to them.”

Additionally, all test drive participants will be entered into the 2018 FCA U.S. National Sweepstakes at registration, for a chance to win $45,000 towards an eligible vehicle from any one of the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep�, Ram Truck and FIAT brands.

In 2017, the Chrysler brand celebrates 25 years of commitment to its local schools and families. Since 1993, the brand helped to raise over $7 million through fundraising test drives. For more information, visit www.cars4classrooms.com.
