Shelby Township Woman Wins Big With New $21,000 Jeep 'Wrangler X'

Children's Leukemia Foundation of Michigan Gets $52,588

Both Already Winners While Detroit Counts Down to Super Bowl

SOUTHGATE, Mich., Jan. 23 -- While Detroit counts down to the Super Bowl, one Shelby Township woman has already won big with a new free 2006 Jeep "Wrangler X," worth $21,000, from the Chrysler Jeep Superstores in a promotion that also raised $52,588 for the Children's Leukemia Foundation of Michigan.

The "Monday Night Scoring Drive" was a real hit for Donna Baccus, who won the Jeep "Wrangler X" outright -- not a lease -- in a Monday Night NFL football game series that paired the Chrysler Jeep Superstores with the Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant chain to benefit the Children's Leukemia Foundation of Michigan.

The new Jeep "Wrangler X" was presented to Baccus by Dan Hiller, president of the Chrysler Jeep Superstores Association of Southeast Michigan, on behalf of the 39 individual Chrysler Jeep Superstores in the metro region.

Baccus won the Jeep after making it through a three-level weekly raffle drawing which began in September of 2005.

Chrysler Jeep Superstores and Buffalo Wild Wings ultimately raised $52,588. All proceeds went to the Foundation. The grand prize 2006 Jeep "Wrangler X" was donated by the Chrysler Jeep Superstores Association, which is made up of the 39 independently owned Chrysler Jeep Superstores in Southeastern Michigan from Monroe to Fowlerville, and from Clinton to Port Huron.
