SHAME ON YOU!
A wonderful story! Joey just returned from a long deployment. Melissa was so happy to have her husband home again! They were giddy! In love, happy to be together again, and excited to pick up their dreams where they had left off. The couple had been saving for Joey’s dream truck. They didn’t want to spend the money on a new truck, so they started shopping the dealers for a great used model.
One of the dealers really wanted Joey and Melissa’s business and found out that their favorite charity was Project Sanctuary. Through Melissa, who volunteers for Project Sanctuary, a pledge was made to donate $1000 if they bought the truck there. Joey and Melissa were ecstatic because they could help their favorite charity too! As they were signing the papers, Joey and Melissa called us from the dealership and told us of the his pledge of support.
The Gala dinner was coming up, so we extended a dinner invitation to the dealer and promised to note his pledge of support in the program, which we did.
That was three months ago. We haven’t seen the money yet. SHAME ON YOU, used car and truck dealer!
