BMW Breand Charity.


BMW- LETS HELP THE WORLD!
If I would be in charge of BMW products, I would create some kind of charity for abused women and children.
What I would do, is I think every car or product we would sell, i would take 5% of sale and donate to abused women and children. Also, I think it would be good idea, if we would do auction to donate money for helping building houses in Mexico. In auction every 5th sale a half of money would go for Mexico prodgect and for abused women and children.
I think like that we could help the world be better!
GO BMW!
