LAS VEGAS, June 11, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- United Nissan, a local car dealership located at East Sahara and Boulder Hwy, gives back to the local community by donating hundreds of gently used footballs to the YMCA of Southern Nevada. United Nissan presented the donation in February 2015 as an effort to support the Y's after school and summer programs.

The footballs had been included as part of the dealership's superbowl promotion giving customers and event spectators the opportunity to win a two year lease on a new 2014 Nissan Altima 2.5 S. Footballs filled the Altima on the dealerships showroom floor from November 2014 to February 2015 allowing participants to guess the amount of footballs in the vehicle for a chance to win. The contest commenced in February 2015 with no winners eligible to take home the prize unlike last year where a winner was named and took home a brand new Nissan Altima.

United Nissan's generous donation supplied the YMCA of Southern Nevada with much needed equipment for their after school and summer programs.

"The YMCA is an exceptional non-profit that brings the community together and helps the Las Vegas youth further their skills through their on-going programs. We are pleased to have helped progress their efforts by donating footballs for their after school and summer programs," said Andrew Hagstrom, Executive Vice President of Marketing at United Nissan and Forman Automotive Group. "We look forward to working with the YMCA of Southern Nevada again in the future."

The YMCA of Southern Nevada is a non-profit organization that relies on the community for donations.

"Support from great community partners like United Nissan enable the Y to continue offering all the great programs we do," said Cheryl Bella, Director of Marketing and Communications for the YMCA of Southern Nevada." "Every year the Y serves 19,000 children and teenagers and this donation of footballs will ensure that kids in our sports programs and summer camp have the equipment they need to stay active and healthy- and have fun."
