As part of the Mazda Drive for Good Event, Berge Mazda in Gilbert will raise money for the Arizona Animal Welfare League.
PRLog - Nov. 25, 2014 - GILBERT, Ariz. -- From now until January 2, 2015, Berge Mazda will be participating in the Mazda Drive for Good Event. This is a charitable program that helps to raise money and volunteer hours for a number of national and local charities. The Gilbert Mazda dealer has decided to select the Arizona Animal Welfare League & SPCA as their local charity for the event.

This is the second year of the Mazda Drive for Good Event, and Mazda has significantly increased the amount that it is pledging. For every new Mazda car that is bought or leased between now and the start of the New Year, Mazda will donate $150 to a charity of the dealership's choice. The automaker is also pledging one volunteer work hour for every test drive of a new Mazda vehicle.

This year, all the funds and work hours pledged at Berge Mazda will be donated to the Arizona Animal Welfare League & SPCA. This is the largest and oldest no-kill shelter in the state of Arizona and helps over 4000 cats and dogs a year to find loving new homes.

Most of the animals the AAWL & SPCA works with are taken from other shelters where they are scheduled to be euthanized due to lack of time and resources. The animals are rehabilitated, placed with a foster family, and eventually paired permanently with an area animal lover.

Berge Mazda has a longstanding commitment to animal issues and is pleased to partner with the AAWL & SPCA to help give orphaned local animals a better life. This is all part of Mazda's broader effort to make an impact in the communities it serves. Last year's Mazda Drive for Good event took in over $2.7 million and donated 56,000 service hours. Mazda has increased its commitment for this year, raising the donation level from $100 to $150. The total amount raised is expected to shatter last year's record.

Contact Berge Mazda to learn more about Mazda Drive for Good, and visit the dealership at 385 W. Baseline Road in Gilbert, AZ to take part in this philanthropic event. There is no need to purchase a car to help out a wonderful cause. Even a test drive will help.
