Shawville Ford's 'Drive 4UR Community' Fuels Pontiac Arena Fund with $6000 Boost!

Shawville, QC – The Pontiac Arena Fund received a fantastic boost this Canada Day, thanks to a community-driven initiative organized by Shawville Ford. Their ‘Drive 4UR Community’ event, held on July 1st at the Pontiac Arena, successfully raised an impressive $6000 to support the vital local facility.

Community Spirit Drives Success

The day was a true testament to community engagement and generosity. Shawville Ford brought a selection of their latest vehicles directly to the arena, inviting local residents to participate in a special fundraising test drive event. The response was overwhelming, with approximately 200 enthusiastic individuals taking the opportunity to get behind the wheel and experience Ford’s lineup.

The success of the fundraiser was made possible through a generous program by Ford Canada. For every person who completed a test drive, Ford Canada pledged a donation of $30 to the Pontiac Arena Fund. With 200 test drives completed, this totaled a substantial contribution of $6000, directly benefiting the ongoing efforts to support and enhance the Pontiac Arena.

A Big Win for the Pontiac Arena Fund

The Pontiac Arena is a cornerstone of the local community, serving as a hub for sports, recreation, and various community events. Funds raised are crucial for its maintenance, upgrades, and continued operation, ensuring it remains a vibrant and accessible space for everyone in the region.

The organizers and beneficiaries extend their heartfelt gratitude to Shawville Ford for spearheading this wonderful initiative, to Ford Canada for their significant contribution, and most importantly, to every single person who came out to do a test drive. Your participation directly translated into a valuable contribution for the Pontiac Arena Fund.

Events like ‘Drive 4UR Community’ highlight the power of local businesses partnering with national programs to make a tangible difference in their communities. We look forward to seeing the positive impact of these funds on the Pontiac Arena!
