Ford Motor Company and Alexander Ford Lincoln Mercury partnered to help raise money in support of Oakland High School as part of Ford’s Drive One 4 UR School program.
Murfreesboro community members put pedals to the metal and helped raise up to $3,400 for Oakland High School by test driving a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury vehicle.
“It was great to see so many people come out and support Oakland High School for our Drive One 4 UR School event. The students and band booster were great to work with. The day also provided us with a great chance to showcase our outstanding lineup of vehicles in a fun, casual environment,” said David Lee, general manager at Alexander Ford Lincoln Mercury.
Alexander Ford Lincoln Mercury worked with Oakland High School to play host to the one-day event May 22. Approximately 170 people raced down to Oakland High School and for each participant who came from a unique household, Ford and Alexander Ford Lincoln Mercury will donate $20.
Since the start of the program in 2007, Ford’s Drive One 4 UR School program has raised more than $2.3 million for close to 700 high schools across the country and has enabled more than 125,000 people to test drive new Ford vehicles.
The funds raised during the Drive One 4 UR School program have helped fund extracurricular activities like sports and band programs, helping to ensure that these programs continue in local communities.
