The Moraine Park Foundation has received support from its community partner, Countryside Auto Group, with a $4,100 donation to the Countryside Auto Group Scholarship. Over the past two years, Countryside has donated more than $18,500 to help support the educational goals of Moraine Park students.

“We are grateful to Keith and Countryside Auto for their continued generosity toward Moraine Park students and for being a champion of education,” Dana Bourland, director of college advancement at Moraine Park, said. “Their gift will open the doors of opportunity for aspiring students who want a better life for themselves and their families.”

The Countryside Auto Group scholarship will benefit full-time students enrolled in either marketing or automotive programs at the College. 

“At Countryside, we strongly believe in serving our local community,” Keith Ghanian, president at Countryside said. “We are proud to support Moraine Park students and recognize the power of education to transform the lives of individuals, families and communities.”

Countryside Auto Group is a Chevrolet, Buick and GMC dealer located in Beaver Dam. Their strong community connections, family-like atmosphere, and excellent customer services are the core of their business. Each month, Countryside donates proceeds to a different local organization to drive awareness and provide funding for the organizations in the community who are making a difference.
