Kalafer happily shares tax reform wealth with workers

Car dealership founder gives $500 bonus to more than 700 employees Steve Kalafer, the founding chairman of the Flemington Car and Truck Family of Brands, gave $500 to each of his more than 700 full-time employees Monday morning for one simple reason: It’s the right thing to do.
