FRIENDS AND FAMILY LIMITED-TIME A/Z CONQUEST PIN PROGRAM - To help celebrate another great year at Ford, U.S. employees and retirees will be given one additional A/Z PIN for use between Jan. 8 and Feb. 29, 2016, to share with extended family, friends, or neighbors. The unique, limited-time program, called A/Z-Plan Conquest PIN, is designed to encourage employees to become brand ambassadors and help attract new conquest customers to the Ford and Lincoln brands. Employees and retirees are free to give the one additional PIN to someone they know who currently drives a competitive vehicle or has a competitive vehicle in their immediate household. Current lease customers are not required to terminate their lease and current owners are not required to trade in their vehicle. To generate an A/Z-Plan Conquest PIN you can call 1-800-348-7709 or visit www.axz.ford.com and select “Generate a PIN, Generate PIN for someone else,” and take the following simple steps:
1. Select Plan Type “Family A/Z (including A/Z-Plan Conquest)”
2. In “Relationship” drop-down menu, select “A/Z-Plan Conquest.”
PROM PARTY GIVE-AWAY – This event is to reach out to families that are not able to afford the expense of a prom dress and accessories for the young ladies attending this special event.

They are a non-profit organization of women who care and want to assist young ladies in Louisville and the surrounding areas that are underprivileged and could use some help with their upcoming high school prom.

Petites to plus sizes will be available. We are requesting any donation through February 29th for gently used prom dresses, dress shoes, purses, or money donations that we can use to dry clean donated dresses we have received.
