“This is a great cause,” said Katie Bowman Coleman, dealer principal. “Clarkston is a community like no other. It has a big heart.”
“We are proud to find a great community partner like John Bowman Chevrolet to team up with for this event,? said Brent Wirth, Easter Seals Michigan president and CEO. ‘It will be a great way for us to celebrate the holidays as well as perpetuate the Easter Seals mission of providing service and support to those with disabilities and their families.”
The funds raised at the event will go towards the life-changing programs offered at Easter Seals Michigan. These services will help local individuals who have disabilities or special needs, and their families, to live better lives.
The event takes place on Friday, Dec. 5, from 7-10 p.m., at John Bowman Chevrolet, 6750 Dixie Highway. Tickets are $50 each or two tickets for a discounted price of $80. They are available at www.essmichigan.org and space is limited.
In the season of giving, this is the perfect way to make the season a little bit brighter for someone else, Wirth said.
“Easter Seals has been serving Michigan for over 94 years by being innovative and addressing the needs of our community,” he said. “This event will allow us to raise funds for those we serve and also celebrate this time of the year with those community members that help support our mission.”
The dealership has supported Easter Seals for decades and has been a major sponsor of the event since the beginning, in 2012.
