Dodge and local Dodge dealers are teaming up with high schools across the country to raise money for student enrichment activities. The automaker is helping to generate money through test drivers through participating Dodge dealers. Dodge will donate $20 for each test drive to high school booster club.
"Music, art, athletics and theater inspire and foster a passion for life and provide a creative outlet that benefits students," said Ralph Gilles, President and CEO, Dodge Brand, Chrysler Group LLC.
Clubs are eligible to earn as much as $2,000 per event. According to Maryland Used Cars, sales staff and personnel from the participating dealership will be on-hand to assist with the fundraising event and answer any questions about the vehicles. Test drives will include Dodge's latest models, including the 2011 Durango, 2011 Journey and 2011 Grand Caravan, without any sales pressure.
"The launch of the Dodge Booster Club Fundraiser will give high schools an opportunity to raise money for their extracurricular activities in a fun and unique way without any sales pressure," said Gilles. "The Dodge brand and our dealers are committed to the communities where we do business and support organizations that encourage student development and growth."
