?We wanted to take an evening to focus on the positive and recognize Chrysler Group for the support it has given our community and our organization. Chrysler Group has supported Michigan Opera Theatre since day one, and the contributions ? both financial and in-kind ? have been instrumental in our continued success.?

The statement above has been given out by David DiChiera. DiChiera is actually the founder and the current general director of Detroit's Michigan Opera Theater, or the MOT. You see, what actually happened was that the mentioned theater, MOT, honored and gave salutation to the Daimler Chrysler Group for its more than excellent service to the community. Also, the company was also recognized for its efforts and contributions in keeping art and culture alive in the in the area of Detroit's metropolitan locality.

During the awarding, Frank Fountain replied, ?The Daimler Chrysler Corporation Fund is honored to support the Michigan Opera Theater and the diverse dance series that it belongs to Detroit. The Michigan Opera Theater continues to bring vibrant and vital art and culture to our region, which is why we have continued our support through the years.? Fountain is the current senior vice president for Daimler Chrysler Fund's external affairs and public policy. He also is the current president of the mentioned Chrysler Group. The awarding took place during the 20th Opera Ball at the Detroit Opera House. This event is held annually by the MOT.

The Daimler Chrysler Corporation Fund has been one of the primary sources of funds and grants of the MOT. Aside from the MOT, this arm of Daimler Chrysler has also been supporting other organizations, events, and activities annually.

Perhaps it is high time that organizations, businesses, and other groups do recognize and give ample salutation to those companies that really give out much effort so as to bring good things to the lives of other people. After all, some companies like the Volvo S40 parts creator, Volvo Cars, do also send out their honor and awards to those people and groups who have made a great impact and have become heroes in their own ways.
