Enthusiast Clubs, Sponsors "Rally" to 9/11 Charity Event
August 11, 2004 - Toronto, ON - Grass roots and commercial support
continues to grow for the GTAMC 9/11 Charity Road Rally being held on
September 11, 2004. "It is gratifying to see that Charity knows no
borders", said GTAMC club President, Fab Fiocco. The Greater Toronto
Area Mustang Club organizes several charity events each year.
The GTAMC 9/11 Charity Road Rally is being held to raise funds for the
September 11, 2001 Children's Fund, an organization dedicated to
assisting children of 9/11 terrorist victims through their elementary
and secondary education years. The group provides support and funding
for their education. While many of the original 9/11 charities have
disappeared, this group takes a long term view and intends to stay
around until the year 2021.
"We are pleased to announce that the venue for this event and the
Hospitality Sponsor is Dave and Busters' Restaurant in Vaughan,
Ontario.", said Fiocco in a recent meeting. "Dave and Busters'
management is excited to contribute to the event, providing parking,
presentation and recreation space, as well as refreshments for the
participants and volunteers."
Superchips Custom Tuning of Longwood, Florida, has demonstrated their
support by donating the leather "team bags" that each participating team
will receive. The bags are embroidered with both the sponsor and event
logos. Other sponsors have contributed to the contents of the bag.
Participants are requested to make a fifty dollar contribution to the
charity.
The road rally is open to all makes and model of vehicle. Several other
enthusiast clubs have announced their support of the event, including:
Ford Truck World - Ontario Chapter, the SVT Owners Association, the
London Area Mustang Club, Team 24K, the Durham Region Classic Mustang
Club, the Ontario Focus Owners Club and the Late Model Mustang Club of
Connecticut have all promoted the event.
All proceeds from the event are being contributed to the 9/11 charity.
This event continues the club's emphasis on supporting charitable
causes. The Show 'n Shine event held August 8, held in conjunction with
the Super Coupe Club of Ontario and Fines Ford Lincoln Sales of Bolton,
Ontario contributed more than five hundred dollars to The Caledon
Hospice. The club also presented a cheque for one thousand dollars to
MADD Halton/Peel Region following a June get-together in Oakville,
Ontario.
