“Toyota South Atlanta, together with those who purchased new cars from the dealership during May donated $10,000 to the Clayton County Public School Foundation,” says Rich Mahon, GM to help purchase technology for remote learning at the start of the 2020 school year.
The family-owned local business located in Morrow, GA donated $50 for every car sold. “We wanted to make a difference during this challenging time,” says Vice President and General Manager Rich Mahon.
“We understand how the COVID-19 virus will affect students who are going to be starting school via remote technology, which is why we are proud to donate $10,000 to the Clayton County Public School Foundation to help them add computers and at home lunches,” he adds.
Clayton County Public Schools Foundation, Inc.’s mission is to provide financial resources to enrich and enhance the educational experience of students, families, teachers, and graduates while remaining committed to supporting a world-class standard of excellence.
“We are grateful for this generous donation. Funds will go towards feeding families and providing hotspots for students who cannot afford an internet connection,” says Superintendent of Clayton County Public Schools, Dr. Beasley.
As our country continues to move forward in this uncertain time, Toyota South Atlanta will continue to be that family owned business that supports its community.
“We know that children will need the school system’s summer food program more than ever this year; that is why we have partnered with the Atlanta Community Food Bank to help. We greatly value our employees, customers, and community and look forward to helping make a difference,” Mahon continues.
