Bridgestone/Firestone Affiliated Dealer and TireStarz dealers in the Chicago, Ill., area have helped raise $50,000 for the United Way of Chicago.
Nine Chicago-area Affiliated and TireStarz dealers along with Bridgestone/Firestone North American Tire LLC (BFNT) sponsored a tent at the third annual United Way Car and Bike Show earlier this week.
Their work in soliciting donations and selling water at the event, along with the efforts of several other organizations, helped achieve the $50,000 total.
BFNT also used the event as an opportunity to showcase several of its consumer tires and educate consumers about tire safety.
