Do Something is Psyched to Announce Major Gift from Chevy Inspired by Teen's Fundraising

Do Something, a nationwide organization with more than one million active kids, announced the receipt of a major gift from Chevrolet: a matching grant promising a truck for every $200,000 raised by the Do Something: Kids Tsunami Relief Fund, the only fund by kids for kids.

"Each one of these trucks will go to one of the five projects on the ground in India, Indonesia and Sri Lanka. We're so totally psyched to be able to make an impact," said Do Something's Executive Director Nancy Lublin. "Chevy rocks. We love Chevy."

General Motors is already active in disaster relief efforts in Southeast Asia, however, Chevy acted after hearing the story of 14-year-old Jake Mazza who has single-handedly raised nearly $80,000 for tsunami relief.

"Jake's fundraising activities through Do Something are truly an inspiration that Chevrolet wanted to recognize and contribute toward," said Brent Dewar, general manager of Chevrolet. "In the aftermath of such a tragedy, it's an important reminder that individuals can make a difference. It's something that our company recognizes as a cultural priority in guiding our business operations in all the communities where we do business."

Chevrolet's donation to Do Something is another element of GM and the GM Foundation's comprehensive effort to assist the affected regions. Chevrolet has also contributed $1 million to the Red Cross, set up a program to match employee contributions up to another $1 million for the Red Cross, Care and UNICEF organizations, and has been providing dozens of vehicles to the regions to aid in the movement of medical equipment and supplies.

Ms. Lublin said Jake is one of dozens of kids from around the country involved in raising money for the relief efforts.

"We have sisters baking brownies in Brooklyn," Ms. Lublin said. "We have elementary school kids in Illinois collecting loose change. Everywhere you look, kids are doing something."

All contributions to the Fund are tax deductible. Everyone who contributes will receive a thank you letter for tax purposes as proof of the donation.

About Do Something

Do Something was founded in 1993 by Andrew Shue and Michael Sanchez, childhood friends from New Jersey who wanted to make a difference. They had a very simple dream: what if making a difference became just as cool and important to American education as athletics? What if community service became like physical education during the day and team sports after school? Kids would develop not only their minds and bodies, but their souls. Every school might have a math teacher, football coach -- and a Community Coach. American youth would learn leadership, citizenship, and character -- and our democracy would be stronger for it.
