Re: [ARSCLIST] Fw: GM Ads
FYI
GM also gives money to The Henry Ford (aka Henry Ford Museum, greenfield Village, Henry Ford Academy, Imax, Benson Ford Research Center) as well as various other companies (like Herman Miller, Inc.) and grants which runs the non-profit organization. Without any of them, as most of us know, they couldn't exist nor could most of us.
