WHAT THEY’RE

SAYING ABOUT US

“The Tustin Community Foundation is proud of our collaboration with the DCH Auto Group Charitable Foundation to bring Safe
Driving Awareness to the community each year. The message about the perils of distracted driving is presented in a way that
both parents and students are impressed and committed to changing their bad habits and sharing the information with others.
The efforts of the DCH Auto Group Charitable Foundation have most definitely saved lives and made a positive impact in our
community.”
-Erin Nielsen, Executive Director, Tustin Community Foundation

“I must say that the single most important component of the SADD conference was the support of DCH Auto Group. When stu-
dents and advisors see that they have the full support of a successful company they feel empowered and confident to continue
the work they are doing to make our communities safer. They left with the message that SADD is not like any other club, it is
a lifestyle and a cause worth supporting their entire lives. The simple words of ‘thanks’ are simply not enough to express our
gratitude.”
-Jenny Manis, Millburn High School SADD Advisor

“Toyota has been honored to partner with the DCH Auto Group Charitable Foundation in support of their work to improve the
lives of our young people in communities across America. DCH Auto Group and its Foundation are a shinning example of great
corporate citizenship.”
-Michael Rouse, Vice President Diversity, Philanthropy and Community Affairs, Toyota
