‘Drive One for Your Community’ event supports Lacombe Victim Services

Jun 19, 2026 | 4:01 PM

Lacombe Victim Services was the beneficiary of a recent fundraiser by Lacombe Ford.

The annual ‘Drive One for Your Community’ event encourages people to take a test drive, and for each one, Ford of Canada and Lacombe Ford donate $30.

The dealership completed 125 test drives for a grand total of $3,750.

In addition, a BBQ that day raised $1,000 for Saving Grace Animal Society.

“Your participation helped support two valuable, local organizations that make a real difference in our community,” Darren Gagnon, CEO, Lacombe Ford, said in a statement to all those who contributed.
