Kidsafe Program grand opening this week!

Operation Kidsafe and Mark's Casa Auto Group, in partnership with Special Olympics New Mexico, are proud to announce three permanent fingerprint station locations for child safety in Albuquerque! The grand openings of the fingerprint stations will take place on June 6th, 7th, and 8th at all three Mark's Casa Auto Group stores.

"When you think about the fact that 2,000 children living in North America 
are reported  missing every day, Mark's CASA Chevrolet is providing an extremely important service to our community," said SONM Executive Director Randy Mascorella. "Being able to provide law enforcement with helpful information is incredibly important, as is setting up a family safety action plan.  I hope that our Special Olympics families take full advantage of this.  We remain deeply grateful to Mark and D'ette Wiggins for partnering with us in yet another meaningful initiative."

For more information about this great program, see the flyer below.
