McKinney, TX, 06-24-2014 – Chrysler Jeep Dodge City of McKinney helped raise $1,110 in funding for Lawson Early Childhood School with Chrysler brand’s Drive for the Kids program. The fundraising event was held on May 20th 2014, in conjunction with a school event.

“Drive for the Kids is a mutually beneficial program. We are pleased to support our local schools, and enjoy demonstrating a terrific, world class product,” said Bubba Thompson, Sales Manager of Chrysler Jeep Dodge City of McKinney. “Parents are genuinely interested in testing our 2014 Chrysler Town & Country minivan with all of the advanced safety, technology, and economy features, and we are happy to help raise extra dollars for the school. Drive for the Kids allows us the opportunity to work together for the kids and everyone has a great time!”

Participants earned a $10 contribution to the school on their behalf from the Chrysler brand by taking a brief test drive in a 2014 model Town & Country minivan—highest ranked in loyalty 12 years in a row—as well as other Chrysler vehicles made available for test drives thanks to Chrysler Jeep Dodge City of McKinney.

At the conclusion of the 2014 program, the school with the highest number of test drives in each one of the five geographic regions (Northeast, Southeast, Midwest, Central, and West) will win an additional $5,000, for a total of $25,000 in additional funding from Chrysler through the Drive for the Kids program.
