Toyota dealerships are deeply engrained in their local communities. Every day, dealer principals and their teams interact personally with families, teachers, leaders and others in their region. They see and hear their unique needs, challenges and opportunities.

Since opening in May 2017, Toyota of Cedar Park continues to actively support its community through sponsorship, grassroots events and volunteerism.

Just outside of Austin, Texas, the Williamson County Children’s Advocacy Center (WCCAC) is the only center of its kind in the county to help kids and families who’ve been impacted by abuse, violence and exploitation. After the leadership team at Toyota of Cedar Park discussed ways to serve WCCAC, the team established an integrated way to help fund and sustain the WCCAC’s expansion. 

But sadly, the community’s needs outgrew their space for healing,

Therapists, counselors, medical personnel and law enforcement are actively on-site to protect children, reduce trauma of victims and their families and assist in the incarceration of offenders.

In January 2022, Toyota of Cedar Park launched a three-year initiative in which a portion of the proceeds from every car sale and service would be donated to the cause. In total, this will amount to a minimum donation of $750,000 at the end of the campaign.

Like Toyota of Cedar Park, the nearly 1,500 other Toyota and Lexus dealerships across North America are listening, engaging, and serving each community’s needs. It’s this unique partnership that helps create limitless possibilities for all.
