In September 2025, Ford launched the Great Ford Dealer Food Drive, a global initiative designed to leverage our collective strength and innovation around the world to alleviate hunger.
The results speak for themselves: together with our Charity Partners, Ford customers came together and donated across 31 markets, impacting an estimated 1.7 million lives.
This year, our goal is simple: bigger and better!
We’re inviting you, our valued customers, to join our Gates Ford Harlow dealership from 16th - 30th September 2026 in gathering food and essential non-perishable items for those in need, on behalf of Community Embrace UK.
Community Embrace UK is a grassroots, volunteer-led non-profit organisation supporting people in Harlow and the surrounding areas. Through food distribution, outreach programmes and community activities, they provide practical support while promoting diversity, community cohesion and connection.
