In a recent sweepstakes awards giveaway, retired General Motors Supervisor, James Calder was awarded not one but two Ford Mustangs as part of an amazing prize package. The 2014 Mustang Dream Giveaway sponsored by New Beginning Children’s Homes is a nationwide program designed to provide assistance for family-style long-term residential care with a mission to provide foster children in need a safe and faith based family atmosphere that aids in working through the many life challenges these children face.

Having entered the sweepstakes the past four years proving patience can pay off, Calder who was awarded both a 1969 and a 2014 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. He traveled to Plymouth, Michigan, on February 13, 2015 where he accepted the two-car prize package at an official awards ceremony. Also included in the giveaway, Calder received $50,000 to help in the paying of federal withholdings required for taxes.Playing the bagpipes in his spare time as well as working on his 1987 Monte Carlo, Calder who entered the sweepstakes in November of 2014 via a $20 tax-deductible donation shared “I am glad I was able to help the charities that were involved.” “When I first heard that I had won I was in total shock,” he said. “I don’t ever win anything. The 2014 Mustang Shelby GT500 has some serious power!”

A prize package is valued at around the 100k mark, Calder who splits his time between both New York and Florida throughout the year, with keys in hand, is ready to hit the road in full Shelby trim. Still in somewhat disbelief Calder plans on telling anyone who will listen that yes this is for real and yes with a little persistence and patience anything is possible. An annual contest look for your chance to enter in late 2015 at 2014 Dream Mustang Giveaway.
