Harris PR teamed up with Ford Ireland and Roz Purcell to raise €26,310 for Irish Guide Dogs with a Drive 4 UR Community campaign, that ran over five weekends in September and October 2025. Ford donated €30 to Irish Guide Dogs for every test drive taken at Drive 4 Ur Community events nationwide across Cork, Galway, Kildare, Limerick and Dublin, with over 877 test drives taken place throughout the weekends.
Ford Brand Ambassador, and dog lover, Roz Purcell helped spread the word raising much needed funds for Irish Guide Dogs’ 400 guide and assistance dog partnerships across Ireland, transforming lives by empowering people who are vision impaired and the families of children with autism to live with greater independence and confidence.
Drive 4 UR Community is a key initiative under Ford Building Together, reflecting Ford’s global commitment to strengthening and rebuilding communities through meaningful local action.
As part of this broader effort, which unites Ford, its dealers, and communities to support causes such as education, food security, disaster relief, and community development, Drive 4 UR Community empowers people to make a difference close to home. This hands-on program not only raises essential funds for community initiatives but also embodies the spirit of Ford Building Together, rallying around a shared purpose to create a lasting positive impact.
