SUPPORT THE NADA FOUNDATION’S EMERGENCY RELIEF FUND BY DAVID HAMMER CONTEMPORARY AUTOMOTIVE, NADA DIRECTOR NADA UPDATE With the generous support of dealers and industry partners nationwide, the NADA Foundation’s Emergency Relief Fund provides crucial financial assistance to dealership employees impacted by natural disasters. Following the recent hurricanes, it’s more important than ever to strengthen this fund to ensure continued support for industry members in times of crisis. Please see the letter below from NADA Chairman Gary Gilchrist. October 2024 Year after year, you literally change lives and help make your own communities vibrant. Of course, I do not need to remind you of the important role you play in your communities, from leading local chambers of commerce to making big, impactful charitable contributions. And, of course, you always step up when there is a crisis. The truth is, you are part of an even bigger family: America’s entire franchised dealer network. And today, many of those family members — some very far away from you — are hurting and could really use your continued help. Hurricanes Helene and Milton have devastated dozens and dozens of communities across the southeast. The stories I have heard and reports I have seen break my heart. We still don’t yet know the full extent of the damage, and we do not know the full number of dealership family members that have been directly impacted. But we know that there are many. 6
