BMW OF PEABODY

BMW of Peabody partnered with the Children’s Trust Fund to help raise money during the second annual Fatherhood Golf Classic at Red Tail Golf course in Devens, MA.  The community oriented BMW dealership donated a 328i to sit on the 11^th hole.  The car would have been awarded to the golfer that could sink a hole in one at that hole. 

The Children’s Trust Fund sponsors programs that address family issues, child development, shaken baby prevention and child sexual abuse. The Trust Fund also empowers parents to become more involved in the lives of their children and the surrounding community.   This was the second year for the golf fundraiser.  Last year, the Lyon Waugh organization which owns several dealerships throughout Massachusetts donated a MINI Cooper as the hole in one prize.

Although there was no hole in one at the 11^th hole, there was an excellent turnout of 84 people who all had a wonderful time.  Undoubtedly, the opportunity to win a BMW was on the minds’ of many golfers!

BMW of Peabody is immersed in community outreach projects 365 days of the year.  Their partnership with the Susan G Komen foundation has helped to raise over $300,000 over the past 11 years with their Ultimate Drive Campaign.  For every mile driven, $1 is donated to the SGK foundation.  Additionally, Bud Lyon and Warren Waugh personally dated over $100,000 towards the construction of the YMCA in Peabody/Lynnfield.  The dealership is also responsible for a $100,000 gift in computers for the Peabody School system and countless other charitable gestures.   BMW of Peabody is also a major sponsor of Boston College Athletics.
