Castle Ford Sales and Ford Canada presented the Matthew Halton Booster Club and the Friends of St. Michael's with a $5,260 cheque on Thursday, November 15.  The money was raised through the Drive One 4 UR School event held on September 29, 2012.  For each person that test-drove a Castle Ford vehicle on that date Ford Canada donated $20.

The money raised is intended to enhance educational opportunities and support educational experiences for students at both schools, including extra-curricular activities like sports, the arts, leadership and citizenship programs, and funding for busing for teams and teachers taking students on field trips.
