Last January 23, Ford Motor Company honored six of its dealers at the 15th annual Salute to Dealers awards at the 2015 National Automobile Dealers Association Convention in San Francisco. Ford’s Salute to Dealers awards recognizes dealers who go above and beyond when it comes to giving back to the communities in which they live and work.

Six dealers were selected from among more than 8,500 Ford Motor Company dealers worldwide. Among them was Andre Rafael Borromeo, the first Filipino dealer and the only dealer in Asia to be given this award for helping victims of Typhoon Yolanda when it hit Tacloban in 2013.

Here's a video that features the work they did for Yolanda victims.
