Al White Ford/Lincoln, in conjunction with Ford Motor Company, hosted a Drive 4 Ur School Event to benefit the Coffee County Central High School softball team.  The event, which was held in March, earned $8,000 for the Lady Raiders.  A check was presented to the team at a ceremony in the Al White showroom on Monday.

Coach Brandon McWhorter was appreciative of Al White’s help.  “We would like to thank Al White for their continued support of our community and sports programs. This is a great event that will help fund some needs in our program.”

Al White Ford/Lincoln raised over $65,000 this school year for schools and teams through test drive events like this one with both Ford and Lincoln.  Over the past 4 years, Al White has helped raise well over a quarter of a million dollars for the community through these events.  Al White’s test drive program concluded for this school year on Saturday in an event at Westwood to benefit the boys’ soccer team and girls’ volleyball.
