From blood drives to partnering with local groups on other campaigns, we work to maintain a positive community outreach. Recently we began sponsoring local health organizations like Akron General. A portion of the proceeds from our new Honda sales in Akron go to these organizations as part of their efforts to treat those in treatment for breast cancer. Local community organizations such as these help provide adequate healthcare and spread awareness of heath news affecting our area.
Our Great Lakes Honda Akron team recently hosted a Trunk-or-Treat event to help raise food donations for the Good Neighbors program in Cuyahoga Falls, OH. Our sincere thanks go out to all of those amazing people in our Akron community who were able to make a donation. We're happy to report we donated over 600 pounds of food!
Good Neighbors a non-profit organization run by volunteers from the greater Akron area, and the program is proud to serve six communities around Cuyahoga Falls.Â
With the community still recovering from the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic and the rising cost of food prices, Good Neighbors is continuing its effort to serve those in the community who have fallen on hard times. Good Neighbors takes donations on Tuesdays & Thursdays from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at their location at 172 Second Street, Cuyahoga Falls, OH.

Akron General provides treatment and spreads awareness of the fight against breast cancer which continues to afflict millions throughout the world. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month each year in the US. Great Lakes Honda helps to raise funds for Akron General to continue to spread awareness and treat patients through the McDowell Cancer Center. In October 2020, our dealership helped raise $10,000 in these efforts to donate to Summa Health, raised from contributions and sales from our dealership.
Great Lakes Honda partners with Akron General during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For each new Honda you buy or lease from our store, a portion of the proceeds go towards these organizations in their efforts to raise awareness for breast cancer and provide treatments.
