Last year, more than $4,000 was raised for the Plymouth Band Boosters through a “Driven to Give” fundraising event sponsored by Oliver Ford Lincoln in Plymouth.
According to a press release, about 200 people turned up on a chilly day in November to test drive vehicles in order to assist the band program. The band boosters earned $20 for every person who took a test drive and filled out a survey about the vehicle they drove and a bonus $10 was donated for every individual who test drove another vehicle.
Recently, Lincoln Motor Company finalized the event by sending the boosters a check for a total of $4,030 for the test drives completed at the “Driven to Give” fundraiser.
Band Director Bryan Ames said he’s grateful to the company for their continuous assistance and reported that Oliver Ford has helped raise more than $17,000 for the Plymouth Band Program since 2010.
