There simply isn't enough tobrsay about how the Thompson Group at Classic Chevrolet has made this community abrbetter place.
GRACEbris genuinely grateful to the corporate partners and local businesses that havebrlinked arms with GRACE to accomplish the mission of providing compassionatebrservices to those facing crisis through event sponsorship. In particular, KenbrThompson and the team at The Thompson Group at Classic Chevrolet have been steadfast,brinstrumental partners not only with our agency, but with city of Grapevine andbrGreater Northeast Tarrant County.
Forbreight consecutive years, The Thompson Group has been the presenting sponsor ofbrthe GRACE Gala, among other charitable events hosted by Classic Chevroletbrthroughout the year. The Classic Chevrolet Golf Tournament divides its proceedsbrbetween seven local charities from the Classic Employee Charity Fund, with abrmatching dollar for dollar gift from Classic owners Tom and Susan Durant.
Localbrbusinesses and civic groups craft a variety of homemade chili--from a southwestbrflair to a beer broth-- during Classic's Annual Chili Cook Off each fall.brNon-perishable food is collected at the event to stock the GRACE Food Pantry.brIn every season at GRACE, the Thompson Group and Classic Chevrolet havebrinstilled an employee culture of giving, which is reflected in their generousbrClassic Employee Fund and charitable events.
Thisbrtype of dedication speaks of a generous, resolute corporate culture that recognizesbrgoals and develops ways to meet those goals. “We encourage our employeesbrto push themselves to achieve not only our company goals, but their ownbrpersonal goals as well,” says Thompson, “giving back to the community hasbrbecome incredibly important and fulfilling for the entire organization.”
Ken's extraordinary advocacy for those lessbrfortunate touches many lives, and his drive and devotion inspires others tobraction. GRACEbris blessed to have the support of the Thompson Group at Classic Chevrolet asbrthe 2015 GRACE Gala presenting sponsor!
