Community Project

Every month, Blue Springs Ford will be hosting a Helping Others campaign. The purpose of this campaign is to get the community involved, and showcase a particular charity. We will be giving away $1000 to a single charity every month, but we need your help. There are hundreds of charities out there. We need you to tell us which one to give the money to. Here is how it works:

The monthly outreach program by Blue Springs Ford will award Facebook nominated qualified charities a 'One Time' gift as follows:

1. Check for $1,000
2. Logo placement and/or recognition within the website for one month.

The monthly outreach program will operate as follows:

1. Charity must be nominated by filling out the form 'Submit a Nomination' on this page.
2. Charity nominations are opened on the 1st of the month at 12:01am CST and closed on the 15th of each month at 5:00pm CST.
3. Voting is opened the 16th at 12:01am CST and closed on the last day of the month at 11:59pm CST.
4. You may vote for your charity once a day, every day until the contest ends.
5. Blue Springs Ford will retain the right to 'approve' or 'disapprove' of any displays, text, writings, logos, or references to the charity that would be presented for support or placement on Blue Springs Ford associated sites or locations
6. Charity or organization must provide proof of 501c3 charity if applicable. Proof should be emailed prior to vote ending. Provide hard copy to dealer at time of award.
7. Blue Springs Ford reserves the right to change or cancel this program at anytime.

Award determination:

1. Based upon votes place in support of the nomination of Facebook
2. Vote count is based upon votes received from the 16th of the month to the last day of the month.
3. Ultimate decision of monthly winners is determined by the management or staff of Blue Springs Ford, and will be approved or disapproved within 72 hours of contest's end.
4. The winning organization or cause can receive payment within 5-10 business days after the close of voting.
5. Once votes are tallied, winner will be contacted to set date and time of giveaway.

Blue Springs Ford is hoping that this effort will allow a variety of groups and organizations to get recognized for their hard work and dedication to our community. We sincerely hope that all area charities will participate and reap the benefits presented within this program.

Blue Springs Ford will be giving away $1000/month until we give away a total of $250,000! That's over a 20-year commitment. Stay involved and help make a difference in the community!

*Effective August 2014, organizations will be eligible to win the Helping Others donation one time. Organization must have current Non-Profit status at time of winning. Non Profit status will be verified via the IRS website. Bob Balderston will occasionally give the monthly $1000.00 to a deserving charity of his choice. We will notify the public on this web-site when this happens.
