LUCKY LADY WINS FULFILL MACH-E!
By Kaitlyn Causeway
Strohmeier,
The Causeway Family of Dealerships sends out huge congratulations to Deborah Dec! Deborah won a brand new 2021 Ford Mach-E Premium at Fulfill’s Inaugural Golf Outing Event “Drive Out Hunger” back on June 21st. This Ford Mustang Mach-E was donated to Fulfill by Board Member Dave Wintrode and The Causeway Family of Dealerships. With the raffles sold from this event, Fulfill raised 100,000 dollars! For every dollar, Fulfill can provide three meals. This means they raised enough money to provide 300,000 meals for people in need! Winner Deborah Dec has been a donor to Fulfill since 2009 and she donates every month. She’s involved in multiple organizations, such as the Hope Center, Family Promise, Holiday Express, Soroptimist International of the Central Jersey Coast, and CONTACT of Ocean and Monmouth Counties.
