General Motors announced a partnership with the United States Leadership Institute (USHLI) at the organization’s 2012 National Conference, the largest cross-generational Hispanic conference in the nation, attracting high school and college students, young and mid-career professionals, and senior citizens. The partnership includes a GM vehicle donation consisting of a Buick Verano, the luxury brand’s newest sedan, to help raise funds for the institute.

The donation of a Buick Verano will help USHLI reach its goal of raising $100,000 by the end of the summer. Raffle tickets prized at $100 will be offered to USHLI members, supporters, and to the Hispanic community at large. Proceeds of the raffle will help fund the Chicago-based nonprofit as it pursues its mission of developing a leadership community.
