Our thanks to the hundreds of hosts who submitted their party's ideas on how they would give away 2 new Fords + $25,000.
Entries received by midnight last night are now being reviewed. (All hosts who submitted an entry will receive a confirmation email shortly.)
Look for more news on The Big Drive Watch-and-Give!
i was also picked as one of the 5 finalists! i am really honored to be chosen, and i hope i get to help out my charity as much as i possibly can!! good luck to the other 4 finalists!!
WOW how exceiting for the ones who were picked! Congrats and good luck to you and your "pick"! I cant wait to hear the reactions of the recipients.
Are the calls only going out to the finalists? I am so excited about my party no matter what!
Okay house party called yesterday to ask about the Media and now Ford called to day and wanted to know about my ford and the charity I picked in my essay that I submitted. but I asked and they told me he didn't think the finalist were picked yet for the Big Give so I am confused. Why are some getting finalist calls and he didn't tell me that my charity was a finalist, I picked Save the Animal foundation because they helped me out last year and I am very grateful for what they do.
So did I count right is there still 2 spots remaining? I pray I get a call this could really help our ministry grow, to serve more lonely and homebound people in our area! This is much more than taking a hot meal to someone. It spending time with people who are alone 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
I was also contacted today and told I was one of 5 finalists. I am super excited and can not wait for the party. Thanks again Ford Motor Company and houseparty.com.
Congratulations to the other finalists. I was very shocked and excited to receive the call this afternoon. This is my first houseparty. I never imagined being selected as a hostess let alone a finalist. What an awesome idea! This could be an incredible opportunity for the organization I selected.
Sometimes the newspapers or TV stations hear about a special promotion like this and want to talk to someone who's involved. It's up to you, obviously, but I think it's cool that party hosts have a chance to talk up their event!
I was told I was a finalist. There are only 5. Im not sure what the media interview is about.
I also got a call for the media interview.What is it about ,somebody's coming to the party to cover or what?I was not sure so i said no..
I got a call and they just wanted to know if I would be willing to be contacted by the media and I said yes, did they tell you in the call that you were a finalist just wanting to know thanks
I got my call this afternoon! I was choosen as one of 5 finalists for the 25,000 and New Fords! Im so excited! Good luck to everyone!
