Chevrolet giving $100,0000 and an SUV to its 'Lead Dream Chaser'

Meag Schwartz has been named Chevrolet's "Lead Dream Chaser" and will get $100,000 and the use of a Chevrolet Trax for three months to pursue environmental efforts.

Meag Schwartz will soon be driving a dream machine.

Chevrolet has picked the Michigan-based environmentalist as its "Lead Dream Chaser" in a contest promoting thew new Trax SUV.

Entrants were asked to explain how they would use the vehicle and a $100,000 cash prize to "pursue their lifelong dream or passion project."

Schwartz is a network coordinator at the Great Lakes Stewardship Initiative, which runs educational programs for youths, and also serves as president of the Great Lakes Great Responsibility volunteer organization, which works to clean the watershed of plastic and other litter.

"I dreamed of cleaner, fresher water in the Great Lakes," Schwartz told FOX Business. "Let’s take the Trax on the road, do a cleanup of all five great lakes, that’s what we’re going to do this summer."

Schwartz will get the car for a three-month loan in mid-May and plans to use it to travel to events at all five lakes through the summer where "impactful cleanups" will be held.
