Toyota’s Drive For A Cure

On Tuesday, April 19 a large enthusiastic crowd of all ages came to Toyota RiveToyotara of Mount Kisco, New York to help support their first Annual Charity Raffle. Rivera Toyota raffled off a 2 Year Lease for a Toyota Rav4. For a $10 chance, one lucky recipient would win a 2-year lease for a Toyota Rav4. Event attendees, some donning their favorite Yankee gear, were equally excited about having their picture taken with baseball legend, Mariano Rivera.

Following Rivera’s remarkable 19 years of success with the New York Yankees as baseball’s #1 closer, Rivera now applies his competitive drive and winning spirit to his work at the Toyota/Scion dealership in Mt. Kisco. Rivera has been involved with the philanthropic causes through the Mariano Rivera Foundation and it is no surprise that he was host to a charity raffle at Rivera Toyota. Breakthrough T1D was one of three chosen charities to receive a portion of the even proceeds.

Breakthrough T1D extends its gratitude to Kenny Hicks, General Manager and Angelo Formigano, Partner and Mariano Rivera, President for hosting this amazing event. We look forward to a long partnership with Rivera Toyota.

The car was won by a Breakthrough T1D supporter and local resident, Abbe Wichman, writer for the Bedford Record Review.
