With dealerships in Coeur d’Alene and Sandpoint, Mike White Ford is more than just a car business. For local owner Mike White, these dealerships are also agents for positive change in the community. Since Mike White bought these dealerships, he has endeavored to partner with several carefully chosen local charities according to their ability to impact the lives of local families. One of the ways Mike White Ford contributes to the well-being of the northern Idaho community is through its steadfast support for SafeStart NW, an organization dedicated to promoting infant and child health and safety.
SafeStart NW offers an array of essential services to educate parents, grandparents, caregivers, and medical professionals on best practices for ensuring the safety of the region’s little ones. Among its vital programs, SafeStart provides safe infant sleep classes that offer guidance on creating a secure sleep environment for newborns.

This latter program is especially important to Mike White, and Ford Motor Company has always been at the forefront of efforts to make driving safer.
The impact of SafeStart NW extends beyond lecture halls and workshops. This organization understands the unique challenges that the many rural communities in Washington and Idaho face. SafeStart NW has placed special emphasis on delivering its crucial services to these traditionally underserved areas, ensuring that every family, regardless of location, has access to life-saving information and resources.
Financial challenges should never be a barrier to providing a safe environment for children, and SafeStart NW is committed to breaking down these barriers. The organization works tirelessly to assist families facing economic hardships, ensuring they have the necessary resources to protect their children, including safe sleep spaces and car seats.
