Thursday, August 25th, 2011 8:30AMFerguson Hosts “Bama Grill Aid”
On July 8, 2011, Ferguson Enterprises gave away 3 University of Alabama logo “Team Grills” that were autographed by Mr. Nick Saban, Head Coach of the University of Alabama Crimson Tide football team. After the tragic events of the tornados that ripped through Alabama, Ferguson wanted to help in any way possible. After coming to the idea of a raffle giveaway of 3 Team Grills, Ferguson contacted the office of Nick Saban to ask if he would be so kind to autograph the three Team Grills they had planned to raffle off and he so kindly accepted. The $5 raffle tickets began selling on June 9, 2011 and ended on July 5, 2011. Three lucky winners were awarded the Team Grills that had the logo from the University of Alabama Crimson Tide football team along with an autograph on the grill by Nick Saban. Over $22,000 was raised, with Ferguson matching the entire donation raised by the purchase of the raffle tickets by 100%. All proceeds went to the American Red Cross West Alabama Chapter Tornado Recovery Efforts. Ferguson Enterprises would like to thank everyone who helped support this great cause!
