Cowles 500 Promotion Benefits Area Homeless Center

Cowles 500 Promotion Benefits Area Homeless Center

Cowles Ford and Cowles Nissan Chrysler in Woodbridge, VA will be holding The Cowles 500 on Saturday, February 16 with the goal of selling 500 vehicles between them. As part of the promotion, the dealerships will donate a portion of each sale in February (up to $2,500) to the Hilda Barg Homeless Prevention Center in Woodbridge, a 30-bed center that opened in 1990 and serves homeless families and singles throughout the area.

We are very grateful to the Cowles family for their generous donation, and for making the public aware about our center and the issues faced by our area’s homeless,” said Gayle Sanders, the center’s director. “There is a misconception about the people who come to us. Many of them have jobs, but they can’t afford housing in this area.

We are honored to be associated with the Hilda Barg Homeless Prevention Center, said Mickee Cerase, general manager of Cowles Ford. We hope a lot of people visit our dealerships on February 16 for some free food and beverages, to learn more about the center and to win tickets to one of those fantastic races at Dover Downs.
