WHY: 

“Because Ken Garff Automotive has been built on the strength of community service, this is a very natural step for us,” said Joey Burns, general manager Ken Garff Riverdale Honda. “Our employees in dealerships throughout Utah live by the ‘Treat People Right’ motto, so we are purchasing tailored goods and services from local businesses to give to local community members in ways that will make a difference.”

“We recognize some small businesses may have to lay off employees or close, but if we can help with specific goods or services, we hope that helps everyone,” said Burns.

“Our employees feel the best way to start summer this year is by giving to deserving people in the community with goods and services purchased from local small businesses,” Burns said. “It is extremely rewarding to help lighten the load of our neighbors and hard-working community members as we work through this pandemic together.”

It's all part of Garff’s 42 Days of Giving from 21 dealerships (twice each) to buy local and give back to local community members to help ease the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic.
