MY FELLOW AUTO DEALERS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY HAVE LONG BEEN INTERESTED IN AND HAVE DEVOTED MUCH OF THEIR TIME AND MONEY TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROJECTS WHICH ENRICH THE LIVES OF THEIR COMMUNITIES. THOUSANDS OF THEM SERVE AS OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF SUCH SERVICE CLUBS AS THE LIONS, ROTARY, KIWANIS AND OPTIMISTS CLUBS.

IN CREATING THE NATIONAL AUTOMOBILE DEALERS CHARITABLE FOUNDATION, WE SOUGHT TO GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY - THE NATION - SOME OF THE GOOD LIFE WHICH THE COMMUNITY AND NATION HAVE GIVEN US. IN GIVING THESE RESUSCI ANNE, JUNIOR AND BABY CPR TRAINING UNITS, WE KNOW THAT IT WILL HELP NOT ONLY TO SAVE LIVES, BUT WILL GIVE COMFORT AND SECURITY TO THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN TRAINED THROUGH THEM FOR SERVICE "BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY". EVERY TRAINEE WHO RECEIVES A CERTIFICATE FOR HAVING COMPLETED THE CPR TRAINING COURSE SUCCESSFULLY WILL HAVE MUCH TO BE PROUD OF. EACH WILL BE ARMED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT TO DO AND HOW TO DO IT CORRECTLY - AND THIS KNOWLEDGE IS PRICELESS.

IN ADDITION TO CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION TRAINERS, THE NATIONAL AUTOMOBILE DEALERS CHARITABLE FOUNDATION IS ALSO PARTICIPATING IN THE ACTIVITIES OF THE JOINT COUNCIL ON ECONOMIC EDUCATION. GRANTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO A NUMBER OF INDEPENDENT COLLEGES AND THEIR AFFILIATED ORGANIZATIONS. THE FOUNDATION IS ALSO CONTRIBUTING DIRECTLY TO NORTHWOOD INSTITUTE, WHICH IS AN INDEPENDENT COLLEGE EMPHASIZING TRAINING IN THE ECONOMIC WORLD.

THE FRANCHISED NEW CAR AND TRUCK DEALERS OF THE NATIONAL AUTO DEALERS ASSOCIATION ARE PROUD TO BE A PART OF THIS PRESENTATION. WE WISH YOU EVERY SUCCESS AS YOU TEACH YOUR FELLOW MEN AND WOMEN NEW PATHS TO LIFE GIVING SERVICE.
