THE WOODLANDS, Texas – Mercedes-Benz of The Woodlands recently donated $40,000 to the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund in a check presentation ceremony. Two nonprofit organizations were donated one hundred percent of MBOTW’s net July profits in an act of charitable giving that totaled $80,000, said Bob Milner, general manager and co-owner of the luxury automotive retailer. The gift to the two organizations is the total of every transaction for the month of July—all vehicle sales, service work, car rentals and other transactions that took place during the entire month.

“We wanted to do more than help. We wanted to make an impact. These donations will give children the kinds of medical and educational resources that can put them on a pathway toward the future they deserve,” said Milner.

The Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund provides support to veterans and their families, with special emphasis on helping children who have lost a parent in the line of duty. The fund has assisted thousands of children through college scholarships, grants and financial aid toward academic and vocational degrees, certifications and other forms of career training as well as educational career counseling and mentorship.

Texas Children's Hospital also received a comparable donation in a future ceremony, said Milner. For more information on Mercedes-Benz of The Woodlands, visit their showroom at 16917 Interstate 45 North, call 936-206-7500 or view their website at the link provided below.
