Butler Ford Fights Hunger with 495-Pound Food Donation to ACCESS

Butler Ford (Ashland, OR) recently donated 495 pounds of food to ACCESS, a local nonprofit organization.

ASHLAND, OR, UNITED STATES, October 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Butler Ford is making a difference for families and individuals in need throughout Jackson County after its employees and community members collected 495 pounds of food as part of the Ford Global Dealer Food Drive.

The food was donated to ACCESS, a local nonprofit organization providing food, warmth, shelter and other essential services to vulnerable individuals and families in Jackson County. ACCESS operates a network of more than 30 emergency food pantries throughout the county, providing fresh and shelf-stable groceries to eligible individuals and families.

The massive collection filled the back of a Ford Ranger pickup, providing a tangible reminder of what can happen when a community comes together to help its neighbors.

“We’re extremely grateful to everyone in our community who took the time to donate food and help make this food drive such a success,” said Bruce Miller, Butler Ford Operations Director. “I also want to thank our Butler Ford staff for working so hard to organize the drive, encourage participation and make this donation possible.
