The National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) says its members and staff, and state and metro associations have expressed an overwhelming desire to help in the wake of terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon. With this in mind, NADA has created a Survivor Relief Fund, under the auspices of the National Automobile Dealers Charitable Foundation, which will primarily focus on assisting the families of firefighters, police

officers and rescue workers who were killed or injured in the line of duty.

The Fund may also provide relief to the families who lost loved ones and who face desperate circumstances.

The Greater New York Automobile Dealers Association has made an initial pledge of $250,000 to establish a relief fund dedicated specifically for victims in New York.

Contributions received from Metropolitan New York area donors will be dedicated to the special New York Relief Fund.

New-car and truck dealerships employ a million people nationwide, according to NADA. If each employee were to contribute just one dollar, that would result in an additional $1

million of relief funds.

As you can appreciate, the need to act quickly

is urgent. Please take a moment to send in your contribution now. Your check should be made payable to the National Automobile Dealers

Charitable Foundation (NADCF), and earmarked to the Survivor Relief Fund.

Contributions are tax-deductible, and should be sent to NADCF, 8400 Westpark Dr., McLean, VA 22102-9720.
