Grafton (April 26, 2010) – Newman Chevrolet announced today it will be investing support in the Cedarburg / Grafton area through a partnership with Grafton Little League. Newman Chevrolet will provide baseball equipment and an opportunity to raise an additional $10,000 in funds through a Chevy Equinox giveaway-fundraiser. The effort by Newman Chevrolet is part of the Chevy Youth Baseball initiative sweeping the nation from March through July 2010.

“Chevrolet has a long history with baseball at the national level. We wanted to bring that excitement and commitment to youth baseball, in the communities where our customers and their families live,” said Chad Curran, President for Newman Chevrolet. “Youth baseball has always played an important role in the community so we are thrilled to support our kids in a meaningful way and the efforts to build a new little league complex.”

Newman Chevrolet presented the Grafton Little League with fifteen equipment kits complete with equipment bags, baseball buckets, water bottles, coaches’ binders and Chevy Youth Baseball t-shirts.

The league will also have an opportunity to raise additional funds for their use as part of a Chevy Youth Baseball Fundraiser. Sponsored leagues will each receive 2,000 fundraiser entry tickets to distribute for a suggested donation, and the league will keep 100% of proceeds raised. At the end of the fundraiser, one winner will receive an all new 2010 Chevy Equinox (up to $30,000 in value).

Chevrolet has expanded its support of MLB to the youth baseball players in communities across the country through the Chevy Youth Baseball program. The Chevy Youth Baseball program began in Atlanta in 2006. Now in its fifth season, the grass roots initiative has activation in more than 20 states and seeks to establish a positive connection between local dealers and the communities they serve. Since its beginning, more than $7 million dollars has been raised by Chevy for community youth baseball leagues.
