Honestly I can’t say enough about my Ford experience during ESSENCE Festival. From picking me up at the airport, a wonderful announcement / meet and greet dinner with R&B Songstress Sevyn Streeter and participating in a Ford “ride and drive”.
Other Ford activities during Essence included:
Giving away the keys to the All-New 2015 Ford Mustang during the Essence Festival
Sirius XM broadcasting live and conducted celebrity interviews live from the Ford booth during the entire weekend
On Friday, July 4, at the Ford booth, the booth went Pink and gave away $20 to the first 250 who test drive, up to $5,000 to benefit Warriors in Pink
I was most impressed and glad to hear the news that Ford donated one million dollars to the Smithsonian Museum of African American History via the Ford Motor Company Fund.
It was great meeting music artist Sevyn Streeter during the Ford Motor Company #fordup dinner too.
