Ford EcoBoost Challenge Bottled Water Drive

EcoBoost PhotoSchool will be out before you know it, and temps in the Valley are quickly climbing into the triple digits. Kids are looking for some fun in the sun, and relief from the heat at local pools and waterparks. But there heat-related dangers also exist as the temperatures rise. For the third year in a row, Ford Motor Company and Big Surf Waterpark have teamed up with the Salvation Army for the Ford EcoBoost Challenge Bottled Water Drive.

According to the Arizona Department of Health Services, more than 1500 weather-related deaths from exposure to heat have occurred in Arizona since 2000. To combat this, Phoenix-area Ford dealerships will be collecting cases of water to use in hydration stations set up by the Salvation Army on days with excessive heat warning, as part of the Extreme Heat Hydration Program.

Each participating dealership has 200 vouchers to be given away, redeemable during the months of June and July.

“This is our third annual water drive in partnership with the Salvation Army and in the spirit of our ‘Go Further’ mantra, we’re proud to provide a $20,000 grant via our Operation Better World Phoenix program,” said Steve Papanikolas, Phoenix regional manager for Ford Motor Company. “We hope our Ford customers – and those new to Ford – will stop by a dealership with their water donation and, in turn, get a little fun out of their good deed with discounted admission to Big Surf Waterpark.”

Those interested in supporting the Ford EcoBoost Challenge Bottled Water Drive may drop off their donation at any of the following 13 Valley Ford dealerships through May 31:

While dropping off water at one of these locations, be sure to take the EcoBoost Challenge on the all-new Edge, the performance oriented Focus ST, or the brand-new all-aluminum F-150.
