This holiday season, Park Place Dealerships gave $100,000 in grants to North Texas nonprofits that make an impact in the community year-round. One of the recipients was our own Pasos for Oak Cliff.
Pasos for Oak Cliff‘s mission is to create social upward mobility and economic prosperity in minority communities through culturally relevant inspired educational programs and events. They also of course provide new stylish sneakers to students.
More than 700 non-profits applied for the 4th Annual Season of Giving grants. Each recipient aligns with one of Park Place’s Four Pillars of Giving: Education; Medical Research; Advocacy; or the Arts.
“It’s been truly inspiring to learn about the remarkable work of numerous non-profits making a difference in our communities,” said Tony Carimi, Managing Director of Park Place Dealerships. “In addition to providing year-end grants, Park Place Members will also volunteer with these non-profit partners in the coming year, aiming to drive an even greater impact in the community.”
Under its philanthropic arm, Park Place Cares, the Season of Giving program awards one-time grants ranging from $2,500 to $10,000. Now in its fourth year, the initiative has granted a total of $400,000 to 86 local organizations, supporting the missions of non-profits dedicated to bettering North Texas communities. Over the past 37 years, Park Place Cares has contributed millions of dollars to charities through ongoing outreach and support.
