Making a Difference: Making a Difference – Park Place Infiniti
For over forty years, HELP of Southern Nevada has provided programs and services to the local community that assist the poor, the homeless, and all those in crisis throughout the area. To show their support, employees of Park Place Infiniti recently adopted two families from HELP and collected enough donations for them to fill an Infiniti G convertible.
The holiday donation drive was part of the Circle of Excellence program, an employee led program dedicated to raising money for worthwhile local charities. HELP provided the dealership with a list of presents that each family needed, and Park Place Infiniti employees secured every item listed, often going above and beyond what was asked for. Employees also put together individual stockings with each child’s name and filled them with stocking stuffers. A convertible on the showroom floor quickly overflowed with all of the presents collected, totaling more than $2,000 in merchandise, along with gift cards to local grocery stores for each family.
“Park Place Dealerships has a proud history of being active community partners,” said Park Place Infiniti GM Stephen James. “Circle of Excellence allows employees to select the charities that they want to support and coordinate the projects so everyone can be involved.” Shawntelle Adler, a member of the finance department and coordinator of the holiday drive, added, “It was important to us to get every child what they wanted and be sure they had plenty of gifts to open.”
