BURKE MOTOR GROUP RAISES OVER $20,000 IN SECOND YEAR OF BURKE

PROMISE INITATIVE, TOTALING OVER $50,000 IN DONATIONS

CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE – Burke Motor Group recently presented four checks totaling $22,175 to the
local charitable organizations who received donations from the dealership’s 2020 Burke Promise initiative
– Heroes on the Water - South Jersey, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Atlantic & Cape May Counties, Cape
Hope and the Cape May County Chamber of Commerce Education Foundation.

Burke Motor Group launched the Burke Promise in January 2019 to reaffirm its over a century of
commitment to its customers and the community. Through the Burke Promise initiative, for every vehicle
purchased at Burke Motor Group, the dealership makes a donation to one of four local charitable
organizations chosen by the customer. Burke selects new charitable organizations annually through a
voting process by the public to be of the most benefit to the community at large.

“Although it was a challenging year, we were so pleased to be able to continue with our Burke Promise
pledge and donations to the community,” says Francey Burke, Director of Community Relations.

In 2019, Burke Motor Group presented checks totaling $32,415 to AMVETS Post #21, Lazarus House
Ministries, Humane Society of Ocean City, Ancient Order of Hibernians, Avalon Lions Club, Beacon
Animal Rescue, Disabled American Veterans Chapter #44 and Holy Redeemer Health System of NJ
Shore. In total, Burke has raised a total of $54,590 during the first two years of the initiative to donate on
their customers’ behalves back to the community. This is in addition to other major benefit events for our
community that Burke holds throughout the year.

The next round of donation recipients will be the Lunch with Lynch Foundation, the Arc of Cape May
County, the Museum of Cape May County and American Legion Post 331.
