Spotlight on Donations
The Goode Motor Education Foundation bought the Burley theater and donated it to the Mount Harrison Heritage Foundation
Simply Hope is a non-profit family outreach program for families in need of hope. They are a volunteer organization with the primary goal of supporting area
families struggling with the effects of addiction, codependency, divorce, grief, and suicide.
The leaders of Simply Hope approached Goode Motor requesting a donation to help them solve their transportation needs. Instead of giving a small donation, Goode solved their
problem by donating a 15- passenger van.
The Goode Foundation sponsored a service project for Casa Hogar, a home that cares for vulnerable children in Mexico. This facility was highlighted in the popular Nextflx movie Blue Miracle. We spent a day there painting their facility and playing with the children.
The Goode Foundation is concerned that youth today do not understand and appreciate the principles upon which America was founded. So, in 2021-2022, Matt Cook taught a free course entitled 1776: America’s Founding in which we focused on the events that led to the American Revolution, the Articles of Confederacy, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. Following that course, the students who participated toured many of the sites they studied, including Boston, Philadelphia, Gettysburg, Trenton, Washington D.C, Mt. Vernon, etc. They were also able to meet Senator Mike Lee and tour the White House.
We created an annual Goode Gives Back Golf Scramble to help schools build positive engagement activities for the students in Twin Falls, Idaho.
The most notable donation was a walking path for students and teachers to use. Not only did we donate the funds to build it, but our employees donated their time and labor to construct the path.
We also partnered with the Twin Falls Education Foundation to help us generate more community involvement; now, the proceeds go to mini-grants
that help teachers purchase needed supplies to have worthwhile activities in their classrooms.
Every year, graduating seniors are honored at their schools for the various scholarships they won. Goode Motor decided to add teachers to the list of award recipients. Thus, the Goode Motor Teacher of the Year Award began.
We survey students and parents to fnd the
most deserving teacher candidates at each
area high school. Then, we give the winning
teacher a $1000 cash award in front of the
entire student body.
Each fall, Goode Motor Ford hosts an annual carnival in conjunction with a local elementary school. Goode Motor Ford donates an amount equal to the proceeds generated by the carnival raised on a dollar-for-dollar basis to meet specifc needs of that school.
Tens of thousands of dollars have been donated to upgrade school libraries, build playgrounds, and much more!
School sports and athletic programs encourage our youth to work toward a goal and the community rallies around the youth in their success and opportunities to grow.
Goode Motor has donated tens of thousands of dollars to help numerous sports programs buy necessary equipment.
