Yes these two are doing Canada proud! I hope they reach their fundraising goal.
There is another new addition as 2010 will see Kia Canada continuing to Drive Change by entering the Motorsports arena. Kia has a racing red Forte Koup in the 2010 Targa Newfoundland. The Forte Koup drives for Team Wishful Thinking as part of a partnership to raise $100,000 for the Children's Wish Foundation.

Check out kiacanada.ca/targa and follow all the racing news @KiaDriveChange and Kia Canada on Facebook.

How to make a donation to the fundraising efforts for Children’s Wish Foundation, and details on the Forte Koup can be found at kiacanada.ca/targa.

Drive Change!
