DISASTER RELIEF FUND<br />

NCADA Assists Dealership Employees in Wake of Hurricane<br />

In an effort to help industry employees that have<br />

been seriously impacted by Hurricanes Florence<br />

and Michael, NCADA’s Executive Committee<br />

voted to activate the NCADA Disaster Relief Fund.<br />

The Fund, which was originally started in the<br />

wake of Hurricane Fran, has provided much<br />

needed assistance to NCADA member employees<br />

during Hurricanes Fran, Floyd, and Isabella.<br />

“Our goal is to help those dealership employees<br />

whose lives were significantly impacted by the<br />

storm. We have a longtime tradition of helping<br />

one another in North Carolina and this Fund will<br />

be used to assist employees and their families<br />

who suffered major flood damage as a result of<br />

the storm,” noted NCADA Chairman Tim Ilderton<br />

from Ilderton Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep in High Point.<br />

NCADA has been working in partnership with<br />

NADA’s Emergency Relief Fund to identify and<br />

assist as many industry employees as possible.<br />

NCADA’s Disaster Relief Fund has been used to<br />

supplement funds granted to individuals by<br />

NADA. General managers were urged to ensure<br />

that all dealership employees were aware of the<br />

assistance available to them.<br />

So far the Disaster Relief Fund has been able to<br />

assist more than 600 industry employees and<br />

their families.<br />

Any additional, donations to the NCADA<br />

Disaster Relief Fund can be made to:<br />

NCADA Charitable Foundation<br />

P.O. Box 12167<br />

Raleigh, NC 27605<br />

Please indicate “NCADA Disaster Relief Fund” in<br />

the memo line.<br />

“The biggest thing is to take care of your family<br />

and take care of your employees; everything<br />

else is insured. We can fix everything else.”<br />

President Robert Glaser stated the Wednesday<br />

afternoon before Hurricane Florence made<br />

landfall. NCADA has activated the Disaster<br />

Relief Fund to do just this. “One hundred<br />

percent of the funds collected will be used to<br />

assist North Carolina’s dealership employees.<br />

Thank you for your most appreciated support,”<br />

commented Chairman Ilderton.<br />

The application for the NADA Emergency Relief<br />

Fund for dealership employees can be found<br />

NCADA continues to send our thoughts and<br />

prayers to all affected by the storm.
