Community Involvement

Metro Ford Proudly Supports:

THE ASTHMA FOUNDATION

Over the past 40 years, the Asthma Foundation of QLD has been helping people to breathe better through Asthma education and training programs, by raising awareness, by financially supporting medical research projects and by providing advocacy for people with asthma.

Approximately 2 million (10%) Australians have asthma as a current and long term condition. Queensland’s death toll from asthma fell from 86 people in 2002 to 43 people in 2004.

Metro Ford is proud to have a close association with the Asthma Foundation and is currently a sponsor of many annual events. Metro Ford will continue to support the fantastic research done by the Asthma Foundation to one day find a cure for this condition.

Spinal Injuries Association

For nearly 50 years, we have been dedicated to enhancing the lives of people with spinal cord injury. We support people to rebuild their lives; advocate for greater independence, equity and choice and present a state-wide injury prevention program to workplaces and at schools around Queensland. We are proud to be a Quality Assured, membership-based organisation, representing thousands of members and clients around the state as the peak body for people with spinal cord injury, and for people with the late effects of polio, including post polio syndrome, in Queensland.

Metro Ford is a long-time supporter of the association with annual cash donations and the supply of a new vehicle that will be used by the Spinal Education Awareness Team (SEAT) presenter Wayne Leo as he travel to schools to promote road safety and injury prevention.

LOCAL CRICKET

Metro Ford is a proud sponsor the Wilston Norths Junior Cricket Club.

As a club with over a 30 year history, and 26 teams, the Wilston Norths Cricket Club appreciates Metro Fords' support and believe their contribution to equipment and uniforms have helped to unify the club's teams and believes it would be difficult to compete without the support of Metro Ford.

Metro Ford's assistance in providing training suits and equipment has helped the club look smart in competition, while injecting a great morale boost to the entire club and its members.
