News from Don Aadsen Ford

RONAN — Ford Motor Company Fund is donating $77,500 to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Washington, Oregon, northern Idaho, Montana and Alaska, in keeping with its commitment that no child should go hungry — especially as the holidays approach.    

Sixty-four clubs across the five-state region are receiving Ford Fund grants ranging from $1,000 to $2,000 as part of the Ford Focus on Child Hunger campaign. This donation will expand the previously launched Ford Focus on Child Hunger campaign and increase the number of children who benefit from this hunger initiative. 

Recognizing the value of the youth as the future of the community, Don Aadsen Ford recently presented a check in the amount of $2,600 to the Boys and Girls Club of the Flathead Reservation and Lake County. The Ford Fund provided $2,000 and Don Aadsen Ford chipped in $600.  The donation will help provide meals and snacks on a daily basis to the youth of the community. Don Aadsen representitives said they are thankful to Boys and Girls Club Executive Director Aric Cooksley and his staff for their valuable work and dedication to the youth of the Flathead Indian Reservation. 

Don Aadsen Ford has been a contributor to the Club since 2006.

“The generosity of the Ford Fund and Don Aadsen Ford is an example of the partnerships needed to make a lasting impact on our community,” Cooksley said.
