17 Goodfellows, Clintonville 17 Community 2000, Black Creek 34 Christmas for Kids, New London 850 Toys for Tots, Green Bay/

Fox Cares Foundation received a $28,440 donation!

With the help of generous local business donations and the support of Fox’s staff, retirees and Board members, Fox’s “Annual Silent Auction and Raffle Holiday Party” (held virtually this year) was a giant success! All event proceeds will be gifted to our local communities, by the Foundation (foxcares.org), to help:

Fox Cities/Lakeshore

Over Hours

Fight Hunger

End Homelessness

Give Access to the Arts

Our Fox family knows how much of an impact they can have in their community!

Each year, Fox staff, their guests and Board members donate their time volunteering. Some things they volunteer for are: packing food for the hungry, collecting donations for local charities, bell ringing, and giving extra help at local events and non-profits. We are so proud and thankful to have each one of them on our team!

QUICK TIP

Fox’s Auto Buying Specialist explains the difference between All-Wheel Drive (AWD) and Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) AWD • Front and back tires all rotate at the same speed • Usually on all the time and cannot be turned off • Typically found on cars and crossovers • Allows normal cars to travel over tough terrain 4WD • Front and back tires can rotate at different speeds • Able to turn off to improve fuel economy • Usually found on off-road vehicles, like trucks • Provides more pulling power and tire grip

Mike Pastorelli, Auto Buying Specialist 30+ years auto experience He researches vehicles for you - a free service! 920-993-3508 Remember: Both AWD & 4WD are trying to improve your vehicle’s traction when accelerating in inclement conditions. Neither help assist with braking but they can help the handling of your car. You might wonder, which is better for our winters. Honestly, you do not need either, a basic Front-Wheel Drive system is good enough because we are equipped with tools, like plows and salt, to clear most roadways in a timely manner. If you drive back-roads you might upgrade to AWD.
