Facebook ‘likes’ help fund Women’s Resource Center
Brown Motors recently held an online fundraiser to benefit the Women’s Resource Center of Northern Michigan (WRCNM) by placing a photo representing the non-profit organization on their Facebook page. Brown Motors alerted followers of their plans to donate a dollar for each ‘like’ the photo received, up to $500. Staff at the longtime Petoskey dealership deemed the Facebook fundraiser a success; the WRCNM photo received 1,216 ‘likes’, reached 12,106 people and was shared 212 times. Pictured presenting the $500 check from Brown Motors are (from left) Derrick Brown, Ford Manager; Holly Brown, eCommerce Director; and WRCNM representatives Jan Mancinelli, Executive Director and Gail Kloss, Chief Operating Officer. Brown Motors is located at 2170 US-31 North, Petoskey, and may be reached at (866) 537-5198 or brownmotors.com.
