Marty Giles, dealer principal of NorthStar Ford Group, said, "One of the core values of NorthStar Ford is to support the communities in which we do business. We wanted do our small part to help the Calgary Homeless Foundation reach their goal of ending homelessness in Calgary. It was also important to let our customers past, present and future know that they can count on NorthStar Ford to give back. We have had such good fortune and now it is our turn to help those folks a bit shorthanded in our community."

For every successful penalty kill at home the Flames have this season NorthStar will donate $200 into the pot. It will grow and if the Flames score in a shorthanded situation that pot gets emptied. The donation will be split two ways between the Calgary Homeless Foundation and a hockey fan who is in the building that night. On Nov. 14, 2013, one lucky fan and the Foundation split $4,200! Way to go, Flames, for taking care of all those shorthanded situations to help the jackpot grow and way to go, Lee Stempniak, for burying one against the Dallas Stars. 

The Calgary Homeless Foundation has worked to reduce homelessness in the city since 1998 with the ultimate goal of ending homelessness for everyone in Calgary.

NorthStar Ford Group is located in Fort McMurray, Calgary, Cochrane and Fort McKay. The staff at NorthStar Ford Group is passionately committed to ensuring that the customer has a vehicle in his or her hands as many minutes a year as possible in order to live life to the fullest.
