At Koeppel Mazda, we are proud to be more than just a dealership in Jackson Heights, NY. Our commitment encompasses a profound dedication to giving back and making a meaningful impact on the lives of our neighbors and employees. This commitment is epitomized by our "Koeppel Kares" initiative, a comprehensive program designed to drive positive change through active participation in community outreach events and philanthropic endeavors.
Through Koeppel Kares, we strive to set the standard for dealership-led philanthropy, focusing on genuine commitment and compassion for everyone we serve. We firmly believe that investing in our community strengthens us all, fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.
Quality Services for the Autism Community (QSAC) Work Experience
One of the cornerstones of our community involvement through Koeppel Kares is our transformative partnership with Quality Services for the Autism Community (QSAC). QSAC is a leading non-profit organization dedicated to providing essential support to individuals with autism and their families.
We recognized the immense value in collaborating with QSAC to create a work experience program that offers participants valuable real-world experience within various departments of our Koeppel Auto Group. This innovative program is meticulously designed to offer a truly supportive and inclusive environment, enabling individuals with autism to cultivate essential skills, gain invaluable practical work experience, and build confidence within a professional setting. The impact extends beyond mere job training; it empowers participants with a sense of purpose and belonging, fostering their personal and professional growth.
Our support for QSAC also extends financially. Koeppel Auto Group proudly sponsors their annual Believe Gala, either with a substantial $15,000 donation or by providing a new vehicle. Additionally, we support QSAC's Golf Outing.
This multifaceted support underscores our belief that education, skill development, and community integration are key drivers for positive change. By investing in programs like the QSAC Work Experience, we actively contribute to a more inclusive society where opportunities are accessible to all, reflecting the core values of the Koeppel Kares campaign.
Pink Day in Support of Making Strides Queens
Throughout the year, our Koeppel Kares initiative embraces various health awareness campaigns, and our involvement with Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Queens stands out as a vibrant and meaningful annual tradition. This powerful community-driven initiative brings people together in the collective fight against breast cancer.
In a powerful display of solidarity, Koeppel Auto Group actively encourages both our dedicated employees and valued customers to participate. Each October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, our premises are transformed into a striking sea of pink as employees and customers alike proudly don the iconic color to show their support for those affected by breast cancer.
At the heart of Koeppel Auto Group's commitment to this cause is our annual Pink Day Raffle, an engaging and charitable initiative specifically designed to raise crucial funds for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Queens. During this event, employees and customers contribute donations and, in return, receive raffle tickets for a chance to win grand prizes, such as tickets to exciting NBA games.
Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) Light the Night
Our commitment to health awareness and community support through Koeppel Kares also extends to the vital fight against blood cancers, as demonstrated by our significant involvement with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Light the Night Queens event.
This powerful gathering unites supporters, survivors, and those courageously battling the disease, all with the shared goal of raising crucial awareness and funds for blood cancer research, patient support, and advocacy efforts.
Koeppel Auto Group is honored to take on the pivotal role of the "mission chariot" for this event. This means we provide essential support and resources to ensure the seamless execution of the Light the Night walk, which takes place at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens. Our sponsorship underscores our deep dedication to making a tangible difference in the fight against leukemia and lymphoma, devastating diseases that profoundly impact the lives of countless individuals and their families.
By contributing to events like LLS Light the Night, we aim to accelerate groundbreaking research that leads to new treatments and cures, ensuring better outcomes for patients. Furthermore, our support helps fund vital patient services, including financial aid, free information, and emotional support for patients and their families as they navigate the complexities of a cancer diagnosis. We also advocate for policies that improve access to care and accelerate medical advancements. This comprehensive approach to philanthropy reflects our belief that true community support encompasses health and well-being. Our continued participation exemplifies the enduring spirit of Koeppel Kares and our commitment to championing causes that foster hope and healing within our community.
