Every year, BMW holds Ultimate Drive events across the country to raise money to help find a cure for Breast Cancer. They partner with the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and use two fleets of new BMWs that tour from dealership to dealership across the country. At each stop the cars are available for test drives on a fixed route. The public is invited to drive the cars on a mapped course and for every mile driven $1.00 is donated to help find a cure for breast cancer in support of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.

The money is used for breast cancer research, education, screening and treatment programs. This year is the eleventh anniversary and the Komen Foundation is looking to raise enough money to push them over the $10 Million mark. It's a fun way to drive the new 2008 models and help a great cause!

There are no events to display.

In addition, you can help support the cause by purchasing merchandise from the BMW Pink Ribbon Collection and a portion of the proceeds will go to the Komen Foundation. The items are available for purchase at the event and all year round online.

Each year the White Mountain Chapter helps by not only participating in the test drives but in shuttling the cars, at the end of the day, from one dealer to the next. As in the test driving, this transporting generates $1.00 per mile and in the past this has raised over $900 for breast cancer. It's a great way to get some extended time driving the latest models. If you are interested in transporting or would like to help out the day of the event, please contact Dana Sion.
