About
CARR AUTO GROUP is family-owned organization doing business in the the Portland area for over 80 years. We care deeply about the community because we live and work here too! We are committed to giving back in so many ways, whether it is through our volunteer efforts or direct contributions. Here's a sampling of how CARR CARES!
CARR Vancouver Buick GMC in the community
We strive to be more than a dealership in VANCOUVER; we strive to be part of the community. Our neighbors have been good to Carr over the years and we enjoy celebrating VANCOUVER, and the greater Portland Metro, we celebrate by giving back to those who have welcomed us all these years.
We do that by being a good neighbor, employer (Oregon's Top 100 Places to Work for twelve out of the last twelve years), caring for our local environment (Washington County's first auto service business to earn a pollution-prevention award), sponsoring local athletic teams and schools, and many things that we all do, as good neighbors. We also like to help those less fortunate or with a hard row to hoe when we can do it in a way that makes sense. Many times that help comes in the form of supporting non-profits and charitable organizations that we have vetted, and have deemed to be on the up and up, and that have a long history of putting their money where their mouth is. Albertina Kerr, The Oregon Humane Society, Toys for Tots, Katie's Kause for Cystic Fibrosis, The American Cancer Society, Tour de Cure, and the Nutter Corporation Dozer Days, just to name a few. We also contribute to important causes and organizations that find resources declining, in what has been a less than optimal economic environment over the last few years. We try to have great FUN DAYS with our fellow workers (and occasionally some of the local folks) to take part in, several times throughout the year. We support families at Christmas, host blood drives for the Red Cross, and loan our facilities to local police and Sheriffs departments for training. You'll find Carr vehicles in Hood to Coast, VANCOUVER Celebration Parade, and again being used by local law enforcement agencies every now and again (watch out y'all).
Carr does these things not because we think it'll make us a buck, or because it's good advertising (you would have to dig for most of this information, as it's not much posted anywhere but on this one webpage), we do it because we feel an obligation to help support those people in our community and just like you, we recognize that we are part of a bigger picture.
If you know of a place or situation where Carr Auto Group might be of help, feel free to contact us. Really. We reserve the right to choose our battles but we can't help fight them if we aren't aware of them.
