Thoroughbred Ford In Kansas City Charities And Community

Ford Community Involvement In Kansas City – Thoroughbred Ford

At Thoroughbred Ford, we believe being a great dealership means more than just selling vehicles—it means being a strong community partner. That’s why we proudly support local causes, events, and organizations across Kansas City, MO. Our commitment to the community is at the heart of everything we do, and it’s what sets us apart from other dealerships.

Here’s how Thoroughbred Ford is making a lasting difference in the Kansas City area.

Supporting Local Schools and Youth Programs

We understand the value of education, and we invest in the future of Kansas City through:

  • School supply drives for underserved schools in North KC
  • Sponsoring youth sports teams across Liberty, Gladstone, and Parkville
  • Hosting high school automotive tech students for dealership tours and career mentoring

These efforts help empower the next generation of leaders, both on and off the road.

Partnerships with First Responders and Veterans

Thoroughbred Ford is proud to back those who protect and serve. Our dealership has participated in:

  • Appreciation events for local fire and police departments
  • Vehicle donation and discount programs for veterans
  • Support for Wreaths Across America and other veteran-related organizations

Kansas City’s first responders and military families hold a special place in our hearts—and in our business.

Food Drives and Holiday Outreach

Every holiday season, we work to ensure no Kansas City family goes without:

  • Annual Thanksgiving food drives in partnership with local pantries
  • Christmas toy drives benefitting children’s hospitals and shelters
  • Winter coat collections for area nonprofits

With support from our customers and staff, we’ve helped thousands of KC families during the holidays.

Hosting Community Events at the Dealership

Our Kansas City showroom is more than a place to buy a Ford—it’s a hub for community gatherings:

  • Annual “Trunk or Treat” Halloween event for families
  • Summer BBQ and car show fundraisers
  • EV education days for customers exploring electric vehicle options

We love turning our space into a community celebration—and bringing smiles to our neighbors.

Environmental Stewardship in Missouri

Giving back also means taking care of our environment. At Thoroughbred Ford, we’ve implemented:

  • Battery and oil recycling programs
  • On-site EV charging stations
  • Participation in local clean-up events and tree planting initiatives

Sustainability is a priority as we continue to lead Kansas City into a cleaner, greener automotive future.

Collaborating with Local Nonprofits

We proudly partner with a wide range of Kansas City nonprofits to multiply our impact. Some recent collaborations include:

  • Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Kansas City
  • Harvesters Community Food Network
  • KC Pet Project adoption and awareness campaigns

Our team volunteers time and resources year-round, proving that the Thoroughbred Ford family extends far beyond the showroom floor.

We don’t just say we care—we show it. Our culture of giving is driven by our staff, our leadership, and our incredible customers. Whether it’s a food drive, charity auction, or community day, you’ll find our team showing up with enthusiasm and support.

That’s what makes Thoroughbred Ford a true Kansas City dealership—not just in location, but in heart.
