Why we think it's important to
align profit with the planet.
"Madera Ford has long strived to not only service our customers with integrity but, also seek what is best for the community we service. We recognize the importance of taking care of our neighbors to ensure that we grow together in a healthy and safe community. We strongly feel that our partnership with The Carbon Offset Company will help us support this goal. We believe that trees not only help clean our air but also provides elegance and value to our neighborhoods. We are confident that our joined effort to plant 15 trees for every vehicle sold will not only benefit the beautification of our community but also provide cleaner air for our future generations. We look forward to making a positive impact on our earth’s wellbeing and improving our ecological footprint."
