We believe all people should have the opportunity to reach their full potential, contribute to society, and have voice in the decisions that affect them. —From the Ford Foundation website
In 1936, Henry Ford's son Edsel donated $25,000 to a great cause: the development of the Ford Foundation, a group devoted to supporting charitable endeavors and public welfare. Since then the foundation (which is no longer affiliated with Ford Motor Company) has made a significant impact around the world.
To give you a better sense of the Foundation, here is a recent tweet:

At Zimmerman Ford, located at 4001 1st Ave SE in Cedar Rapids, our goal is to bring the same level of care and dedication exhibited by the Ford Foundation to our own brand of service. That's why when you bring your car into our service center, we'll bend over backwards to make sure that you leave happy—in a car that's running optimally.
