Buy a Car, Help a School

Remember that 14 Concord auto dealers will programs during this weekend’s President's Day Sales Extravaganza. Donations will benefit the Mount Diablo Music Education Foundation and the United Mount Diablo Athletic Foundation. It isn’t known how much each dealer will give to the organizations but this is the first large-scale partnership between city businesses and local schools of its kind here.
