Zimbrick at Fish Hatchery Road Community Involvement
As a local, family-owned business, Zimbrick at Fish Hatchery Road understands the importance of taking an active role in building and supporting our community here in Madison, Wisconsin. We can think of no better way of doing that than paying with our own personal time, a little concept we call “civic rent.” The Zimbrick family of dealerships was founded upon this principle, after all, and that’s why we give back.
The following are just a few of the causes that are near and dear to our hearts.
Education
Automotive Youth Educational Systems
Think of AYES as a jumpstart for young people who want to prepare for entry-level career positions in the automotive industry. This initiative was formed in partnership with Wisconsin’s Youth Apprenticeship programs, and many participating students begin working with Zimbrick service departments as apprentices.
Organizations
United Way of Dane County
We’re proud to consistently be a top contributor to the United Way of Dane County, not only in terms of money, but also time invested. In the past, we’ve partaken in “fun raising” events like Days of Caring, golf outings, and softball and Texas hold’em tournaments. Our involvement and creativity have even been recognized with the United Way Innovation award.
American Red Cross Blood Drives
The American Red Cross estimates that each unit of collected blood can impact and save three lives. That’s why we consider it an honor to host a biannual drive, which is one of the largest private blood drives in Dane County.
American Heart Association
Heart disease hits close to home, so we’ve made it a mission of ours to build healthier lives free of cardiovascular disease and stroke by supporting the AHA. Our efforts to raise awareness include partnerships, financial commitments, and employee volunteer hours.
Partnerships
Hyundai Hope on Wheels
Kids are the future, and they deserve every opportunity to grow, play, and learn in a world free of pediatric cancer. That’s a belief we share with Hyundai Hope on Wheels, an organization that funds research and creates awareness for childhood cancer. HHOW donates a fraction of every new vehicle sold to the development of innovative, life-saving research that will hopefully lead to new treatment therapies and increase survival rates for patients as we work toward a cure. Our dealerships are proud participants.
