30 Days of Drive Bigger: Spreading Peace, Love, and V-Dub in Our Community

September 1st, 2023 by

At Findlay VW, this September isn’t just another month; it’s a month of purpose, compassion, and community involvement. We’re excited to bring back our brand initiative called “30 Days of Drive Bigger,” where we commit to performing one good deed each day throughout the month of September. Our objective is simple: to promote the Findlay VW culture of doing things with purpose and spreading peace, love, and V-Dub within our community.

We drive bigger when:
Dealers become pillars in their communities.
We provide for the next generation.
We spend our time giving back.
We use sports sponsorships to level the playing field.
We make bold commitments and lead by example.
We choose the hard path going back to zero to do what is right.
– Volkswagen of America 

Through this program, we aim to develop a deeper understanding of “doing something bigger than yourself”. By actively engaging with our community and performing various deeds with intention, we build empathy and compassion. We believe that empathy is the cornerstone of a more compassionate society, and we’re dedicated to fostering it and supporting others who care in every way we can.

“30 Days of Drive Bigger” is not just about the deeds themselves; it’s about the lessons we learn along the way and the way we are humbled by the experiences. We are encouraged every day by those who do good and give back to become more socially aware. By actively contributing to the welfare of our community, we open our eyes to the challenges and opportunities that surround us. It’s a chance for us all to grow, learn, and make a positive impact together.

We firmly believe that even small, daily good deeds can have a significant impact on individuals and communities. By sharing our experiences and stories throughout September, we aim to ignite a spark of community engagement in our friends, family, and customers. “30 Days of Drive Bigger” isn’t just for our community; it’s for our team members and customers too. We want to create a positive environment within our store where everyone feels encouraged to participate and contribute. It’s about strengthening the bonds between our team and our valued customers, all while working towards a shared goal of making our community a better place.

As we kick off the month of spreading peace, love, and V-Dub in our community, we invite you to join us. Keep an eye on our social media channels throughout September to stay updated on our daily photos and stories, and please, share yours with us as well! We believe that together, we can make a positive change, one good deed at a time.

At Findlay VW, we’re committed to driving bigger and making September a month to remember!
