BRILLION – The Horn Ford Drive 4 UR Community event is this Sunday at Professional Plating in Brillion from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Horn Ford will provide vehicles to test-drive in the parking lot for free. Ford Motor Company will donate $20 for each test drive to the grow FOUNDATION.

The mix of vehicles available for test drive include: F-150s, F-250s, Ford Explorers, Ford Edges and cars.

“A sampling of everything so people can drive whichever they choose,” Hank Horn from Brillion Horn Ford said.

Sunday’s event is strictly about fundraising, and not making sales.

“There will be no salesmen there. We’re not there to sell cars, we’re there to offer test drives and raise money for the Brillion grow FOUNDATION,” Horn said.

Test drivers must be at least 18-years old with a valid driver’s license and automobile insurance. Pre-registration for the event is available at: d4ur.com/RDM6J. In-person, a smart phone will be required to scan a QR code.

Proceeds from the event will be split between grow and the Brillion Area Family of Funds. The money raised for the Brillion Area Family of Funds will be matched by the Bob and Pat Endries Charitable Fund up to $50,000. The money will go to the Community Endowment Fund for future community projects. To date, $17,425 has been raised for the Community Endowment Fund. A fundraising match lasts until December 31.

Food, beverages, and hundreds of dollars worth of prizes will be a part of the day.
