A longtime automotive executive, Leo Sfikas helped guide the Currie Motors Auto Group in Chicago for nearly two decades and oversaw several growth-focused Ford dealerships. A strong supporter of the US Armed forces and those who serve their country, Leo Sfikas has coordinated events that raised money for organizations such as Folds of Honor.
The nonprofit had its inception in the personal experiences of an Oklahoma Air National Guard F-16 fighter pilot, who witnessed firsthand the profound impact that a service member's death had on loved ones. Since 2007, the Iraq War veteran has coordinated scholarships that provide educational support to the children and partners of disabled and fallen military members. The symbol of this is a folded flag that serves as a remembrance of those who sacrificed so that others can enjoy peaceful and productive lives.
As general manager of Currie Motors Ford of Valparaiso, Mr. Sfikas facilitated a Memorial Day Car, Truck, and Bike Show that benefitted Folds of Honor each year. Held under large tents, the show brought together automotive enthusiasts and featured 13 classes of vehicles, with a trophy awarded to the winner of each class. The event featured a hamburger grill that kept attendees well fed while they participated in a raffle for items such as the new Ford Mustang to support a worthy cause.
