Drive for the Troops Marks Another Successful July of Supporting the USO For the 13th consecutive year, the Chicago Automobile Trade Association (CATA) and its dealer members came together throughout July to support the USO through the Drive for the Troops fundraising campaign. Dealerships across Chicagoland hosted a variety of community events and online fundraisers, including barbecues, car shows, bike rides and other creative initiatives, all with a shared mission of supporting service members and their families. The CATA Annual Meeting & Member Golf Outing also contributed to the campaign, with event fundraising and dealer contributions benefiting the USO. Now in its 13th year, Drive for the Troops continues to unite CATA dealer members in giving back through the USO. This year’s campaign raised $59,000, bringing the program’s total fundraising to more than $1.2 million since its inception. Nearly 800 fundraising events have been held over the years, helping the USO provide critical resources and services to more than 300,000 service members and their families annually. The campaign’s final donation will be presented to the USO during a special check presentation at USO Great Lakes Center, continuing the CATA’s long-standing commitment to honoring and supporting those who serve. Thank you to all of the CATA dealer members, employees and community members who participated in this year’s Drive for the Troops campaign and helped make another successful July possible.
