The Chairman’s Message
If you were charged with the responsibility of transcending space and time to honor someone,
how would you accomplish that? There are many ways you could do that but coupling it

with an endeavor to help others is the best way. The National Automobile Dealers Charitable
Foundation has assisted hundreds of people in need throughout the years. And it was three
gentlemen who made a significant mark in their spheres of influence in order to do that. In all
three cases, these men were outstanding husbands and fathers, and their accomplishments
are forever etched in time through their families and charitable contributions.
Joseph J. Sanchez was a man of humble origin who faced hardships such as the death of
his father and the debilitating effects of polio at a young age. Thanks to his mother’s guidance,
Joe found the strength to not just survive, but flourish. He forged an amazing career as a General Motors executive and served

for many years as vice president and general manager of the Oldsmobile Division. He reached a pinnacle when he became
president of General Motors South America. He eventually became the first president of Saturn Corporation. Tragically, within
two weeks after that achievement, Joe passed away. His work and life are perpetuated in a college scholarship program that
helps students with emergency needs.
John P. Winston, Sr., is also special to our retail automobile family, as he served as general counsel of the National Automobile
Dealers Association for decades. When he was not attending to legal matters he was working faithfully on the Sanchez
Memorial Fund to help students in need. After his death, many people were moved to establish a memorial fund to honor him.
Frank E. McCarthy had a life and career marked with a deep passion for his family and his desire to help others. He spent

more than 33 years as chief operating officer of NADA, leading the association to become a forceful and respected advocate for
dealers everywhere. The Frank E. McCarthy Memorial Fund honors his memory through donations to Canine Companions for
Independence, which presents highly trained service dogs to children with disabilities and to wounded veterans.
The Joseph J. Sanchez Memorial Fund has donated more than $550,000 to students in need; the John P. Winston, Sr. Memorial
Fund has given more than $500,000 for the discipline of ethics; and the Frank E. McCarthy Memorial Fund, has proudly given
$250,000 to help children with disabilities and wounded veterans.
On behalf of the Sanchez, Winston, and McCarthy families—and on behalf of our NADA family—we are truly proud to say we’ve
continued the legacy of these great men and will forever remember them through space and time.

Frank E. McCarthy
MEMORIAL FUNDS
Frank E. McCarthy
The Frank E. McCarthy Memorial Fund was created in memory of
NADA’s longtime chief operating officer.
Since 2002, the Frank E. McCarthy Memorial Fund has contributed $250,000 to
Canine Companions for Independence (CCI), placing 25 skilled service dogs with
disabled children and wounded veterans.
To support the Canine Companions program, ADESA auctioned a Harley-Davidson
motorcycle during the 2014 NADA Convention and Expo in New Orleans. The winning
bid of $27,000, made by Joe Verde, president of the Joe Verde Group in San Juan
Capistrano, California, benefited the Wounded Veterans Initiative of CCI. This was the
third year ADESA has held a live auction at the NADA convention.
“I thank ADESA for holding another successful auction to raise money for a cause
that has such a special meaning to the NADA Foundation,” said Bob Mallon,
foundation chairman. The foundation presented CCI with $40,000 in 2014.

Foundation Ambassadors
2014 AMBASSADORS
The more than 700 Ambassadors of the
National Automobile Dealers Charitable
Foundation are committed to giving back
to their local communities.
“Dealers and associations across the country are
setting a great example by utilizing the Ambassadors
program as part of their charitable giving,” said Bob
Mallon, chairman of the NADA Foundation. “I cannot
thank them enough for their ongoing support.”
The program gives members the opportunity to make
contributions to organizations that have a personal
meaning. Each year, more than $250,000 in grants are
donated to organizations in the public or private sector,
supporting a variety of causes, from emergency and
medical services to educational programs. Last year,
208 Ambassadors were eligible to present grants to
organizations of their choice.
To become an Ambassador, a dealer, company,
association or individual makes a tax-deductible
contribution of $10,000, sometimes in recognition of a
loved one, living or deceased. Ambassadors are then
eligible to provide grants every three years in perpetuity.

Since the program’s inception in 1975, more than
4,800 manikins with a value of more than $4 million
have been donated to organizations in all 50 states and
Washington, D.C.
Survivors Relief Fund
The Foundation was among the first organizations to
support 9/11 families with contributions to Scholarship
America, making it possible for the sons and daughters
of Americans killed or permanently disabled during
the attacks in New York, Washington, D.C., and
Shanksville, Pennsylvania, to attend college.
Initially, $1.6 million was raised through the Foundation’s
Survivors Relief Fund. Since its inception, the fund has
provided $732,400 in scholarship aid to 122 students.
Dealers can use these grants to start programs to
install child passenger safety seats, promote teen and
senior driver safety, educate consumers about rural
road safety, and/or combat distracted driving.
The Legacy Program
The Foundation’s Legacy Program is an exceptional
vehicle for deliberative estate planning and conveys the
vital community service role that franchised new-car and
-truck dealers render for the benefit of so many citizens.
The Legacy Program was established 12 years
ago to recognize those who have committed to the
Foundation in their estate planning. It is helpful to
people who wish to take advantage of the Foundation’s
501(c)(3) status. Specific designations may be
proposed by donors in their plans or a pledge to the
Legacy Program can be made to any of the Charitable
Foundation’s programs. In this way, members of the
retail automotive family are given a unique opportunity
to make bequests that celebrate their life’s work.
