At VanDevere Cadillac, 0iving back to the community is an integral part of our mission. Recently, our team hosted a raffle called Thrive & Drive, in partnership with the St. Hilary Knights of Columbus. The lucky winner, a resident of Akron, OH, took home an incredible $12,000 cash prize. We're happy to extend our heartfelt congratulations to the winner and their family.

Thrive & Drive: Supporting Akron's Youth

The Thrive & Drive program is an initiative that VanDevere Cadillac created to support organizations, youth sports teams, churches, and schools in their efforts to raise money for the youth of Akron, OH. By partnering with these groups, we provide them with more opportunities to raffle exciting prizes and raise funds to support their most important programs. The Thrive & Drive raffle was made possible through our collaboration with the St. Hilary Knights of Columbus, a respected organization dedicated to serving the community.

Through the Thrive & Drive program, VanDevere Cadillac aims to empower local groups to make a positive impact on the lives of Akron's youth. By providing financial support and resources, we enable these organizations to continue their vital work in nurturing the next generation's leaders, athletes, and community members.
