Maple Ridge Hyundai has made a $10,000 donation to KidSport Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, to help local kids get into organized sports.
The donation was made possible through Kot Auto Group’s Operation 500 campaign. It was launched to drive 500 vehicle sales across all Kot Auto Group dealerships in a single month – with each store contributing $10,000 to a local cause that matters to them.
At Maple Ridge Hyundai, that cause is KidSport – a national non-profit organization that provides financial assistance to help kids access organized sports. The donation will go directly to supporting youth in the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows areas, ensuring more children can get off the sidelines and into the game.
"Supporting youth in our community is something we care deeply about," said Colin Duckworth, general manager at Maple Ridge Hyundai. "Sport builds confidence, discipline, and teamwork – and every child deserves that opportunity. We’re proud to support KidSport to help make that possible."
This cause is especially close to the Kot family, who own and operate the Kot Auto Group.
"Our family has always been passionate about sports," said John Kot, group president. "It’s played a huge role in our lives, so giving more kids the chance to play is something that truly means a lot to us."
