Your Utah Local Ford Stores proudly supports
OUR Utah communities:
Utah Food Bank in their fight against childhood hunger. We are now on our third year of our Ford Souper Challenge + Virtual Food Drive working with local high schools. Each year, we raise thousands of dollars for Utah Food Bank in addition to our support for KUTV's Souper Bowl of Caring and our Dunks for Food with the Jazz. Throughout the years, we have supported Utah Food Bank with donations along with support to help build their school pantries. Our goal is to assist them to not only provide food for needy Utah families but also needy children so they get the nutrition to thrive in school, activities and life.
Children's Justice Center in their efforts to provide support for child victims to recover from the damaging physical, mental and spiritual effects of their abuse. We conduct several programs throughout the year to help raise money for CJC along with our donations. Our goal is to help CJC serve children in our community who are the most vulnerable and need the most assistance.
Angel Tree is a great program during the holidays to get Christmas gifts to children and families in need. It's been an honor to support this amazing community focused effort focused on making magic in the lives of children in Utah.
Primary Children's Hospital & Huntsman Cancer Institute with our University of Utah Bear Toss where we raise money and bears for children & people fighting cancer and other health concerns.
Bountiful Rotary's Coat for Kids raising money and support to provide children in need in Davis county with warm coats, gloves, hats and accessories for the cold winter.
Summer 2020 Neck Wrap Program where 100% of the net proceeds provided over 5000 meals in a short period of time. It was a great opportunity for us to find a fun way to give back to the community while sporting some great pride and sportsmanship.
Loveland Living Planet Aquarium | Ford Expedition Asia is a partnership between an amazing family-oriented retreat, education, and branding. We love being the sponsor of Ford Expedition Asia. It's fitting! But, more importantly we love taking this sponsorship to the next level by trying to connect with the community and honoring them. We gave out an Escape to the Aquarium's 6th millionth guest. We also give out 3-4 penguin encounters to guests who participate in our fun Ford Expedition contests.
Welcome to
Utah Ford Cares
It's been amazing to outreach with so many partners in trying to impact out Utah community. We love it!
Thanks so much for joining us in our journey.
About Us
Your Local Ford Stores comprises of all the Ford Stores in the state of Utah. We come together to help support various community programs and partners. Our goal is to ensure we are a community leader and supporter.
We work on several programs throughout the year to give back to the community. We are involved in the Souper Bowl of Caring providing meals to children in need, Children's Justice Center, Utah Food Bank, Angel Tree, Bear Toss supporting children fighting cancer & Huntsman Cancer Institute, Walk for MS, and the Bountiful Rotary Coat for Kids providing warm jackets to children in Davis County.
Our Utah Ford Cares launched a new program in 2020 to continue to support Utah Food Bank's Mobile School Pantry where we were able to provide over 5000 meals to children in need. We expanded our KUTV Souper Bowl of Caring contributions and made a 1 day telethon into a month long fundraiser benefiting Utah Food Bank and local high schools.
We continued in 2021 with our Expedition Asia Scavenger Hunt & Coloring Contests at the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium treating patrons with the opportunity to feed the penguins. We even gave away a Ford Escape to the 6th millionth visitor. Last, we took advantage of our partnership and coordinated a fundraiser for the Children's Justice Center at the Aquarium. We gave out three penguin encounters in 2022 and look forward to giving out another 4 in 2023.
We also like to have fun with our fans. At our 2022 military appreciation game, we did the Ultimate Hook Up for fans to get all of our awesome RSL Ford swag for a donation of $5. We 100% matched that donation, paid the transaction fees, and donated it all to the Hill AFB Defenders Cup Soccer Team.
We are a huge supporter of our universities in Utah. Either cheering on the red or cheering on the blue(s), we are there with our college partners treating our Utah fans to some awesome Ford fan swag.
We also love the Jazz and having the Ford Fan Zone where fans can cheer, eat (the All You Can Eat buffet if you dare), play games, take a picture and have the opportunity to win an autograph jersey. For the past several years, we've only given out 1 autograph jersey to 1 fan of the year. In 2023, we are giving out 4! Wowzers!
The Ford Street Team Giving Foundation manages all of our charitable elements by working with our team and proud partners. FST Giving Foundation is the charitable organization of our Ford Street Team that you see at events. 100% of donations collected by the FST Giving Foundation is then given to the named charity at the end of the program period. FST Giving Foundation and Your Local Ford Stores will cover all the transaction and administrative costs that may be attributed with the fundraiser.
The FST Giving Foundation is a Non-Profit Pending Organization.
