Kindness Matters

  “But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,” ~ Matthew 6:3, NIV Ever since Community Automotive Repair’s inception, this company has been built (literally) on charitable initiatives.  If you know our back story, it’s not something we’ve intentionally promoted to date.  This […]

Join Us

These two words (refer to subject heading) are the mantra of the 2nd Annual Fund Drive for The Rapidian (05.14.13 – 05.19.13).  We can appreciate if this causes you to flashback to a riveting scene of Star Wars, where Darth Vader himself is using the Force to convince Luke to “join” the Dark Side.  However, […]

Happy FrEEday!

06.24.11 marks the launch of another small way we hope to give back to all of you that have supported Community Automotive Repair.

We’ve written about this in an earlier blog entry but wanted to revisit things based on today being National Day of Awareness (with concern to distracted driving).  Hopefully WordPress will publish this in time for you to participate, but if not you can still follow the links for useful information.  The Remember Alex Brown Foundation […]

Learn. Share. Laugh

We’ve had the good fortune of knowing several people associated with Gilda’s Club Grand Rapids for many years (up to 20).  This organization has most recently been garnering local/regional attention for their upcoming LaughFest series, but long before this idea was even conceived they’ve been doing incredible and necessary work.  For those of you affected […]
