ADESA Raises More Than $39,000 for JDRF

Nearly 150 motorcycles and 40 vintage vehicles took to the road Sunday, June 1, 2014, for ADESA Boston’s 14th Annual Classic Car and Motorcycle Run. Proceeds from the event benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

So far, the auction has collected $39,790 from this year’s event. Final totals will not be available until June 30.

The “run” included a 30-mile police escorted ride through several Massachusetts towns. In the past 13 years ADESA Boston has donated more than $400,000 to local children’s charities.

“The continued support of our employees, our customers, our local law enforcement agencies and the business community as a whole is greatly appreciated,” said ADESA Boston General Manager Jack Neshe. “Without them, our success wouldn’t be possible.”

Along with the classic car and motorcycle run, the event included free food, live music and fun for the whole family.
