Congratulations to the 2008 MileOne Raffle Winner

Owings Mills, MD; August 27, 2008 -- The American Cancer Society and MileOne Automotive recently announced the winner of their raffle for a new 2008 Saturn Outlook sports utility vehicle: Archiena Beaver, a resident of Owings Mills, Maryland. The vehicle was donated by MileOne to help the Society increase cancer awareness and raise funds for the nonprofit organization.

"Volunteers like Archiena are the American Cancer Society's greatest resource, and we would not be able to offer our local programs for cancer patients and their families without them," said Gloria Jetter, regional executive director for the Society. "This raffle and our ongoing partnership with MileOne help our organization immensely. MileOne's commitment has enabled us to enhance our efforts across the state through prevention and early detection programs, as well as to provide free patient services like transportation and lodging."

MileOne has sponsored the automobile raffle for the Society's Relay For Life for the past eight years, offering a Volkswagen Beetle, PT Cruiser, two Mercedes C-Classes, Saturn VUE, Jeep Liberty Sport, Saturn Relay and Saturn Outlook. The automotive group's sponsorship of Relay for Life and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer has raised over $2 million for the Society.

"The MileOne family is committed to giving back to the community, and we are proud to partner with the American Cancer Society to increase cancer awareness and raise dollars for fighting the disease," said Jerry Fader, president and chief operating officer of MileOne Automotive. "In Baltimore and across Maryland, our employees participate in the Society's Relay For Life events in order to educate others on the importance of early detection and cancer prevention."
