TIFFIN, OHIO – Reineke’s Tiffin Ford is excited to host a Drive For Your Community event on Saturday, September 26, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. during the Downtown Tiffin Farmers Market.
Community members can support Seneca County CEO simply by getting behind the wheel of a new Ford. There is no cost to participate, no purchase necessary, and no pressure to buy. Each test drive takes only a few minutes, and for every valid test drive completed, Ford Motor Company will donate $30 to Seneca CEO — up to $6,000!
“The Seneca CEO program is grateful for this collaboration. This event not only provides a great opportunity for our new CEO students to engage with the community but also allows them to put their newfound business skills into practice,” said Jamie Marinis, Seneca CEO. “This is just one of many examples of the incredible support our CEO students receive from local businesses and community leaders across the county. I am excited for the students to learn from this experience and continue refining their business acumen as they grow as young entrepreneurs and leaders.”
Participants can choose from a variety of new Ford vehicles for their test drive, including the Expedition, F-150, Maverick, all-electric Mustang Mach-E, Bronco, Bronco Sport and more.
The test-drive area will be located at the intersection of Court Street and South Washington Street in Downtown Tiffin, with participants entering through the Farmers Market. It’s a quick and easy way to experience a new Ford while directly supporting Seneca CEO and its mission to provide local students with real-world business and entrepreneurial experiences.
“Seneca CEO gives students valuable real-world experience while helping develop the next generation of leaders in our community,” said Suzie Reineke, Reineke Family Dealerships. “Ford’s Drive For Your Community is a great way to bring people together and invest in these students and their future.”
The initiative is part of Ford’s Building Together program, which has raised millions of dollars nationwide to support schools, nonprofits and local causes.
