At America’s Car-Mart, our vision is to be “America’s best auto sales and financing company in the eyes of our associates and customers while improving the communities we serve.” We work hard to help our customers and strive to be a business force for good.
October is our "Drive Away Cancer" campaign, where qualified customers can get a $499 down payment on select vehicles. This is one way we strive to make vehicle ownership affordable for hardworking Americans.
We also believe we have a responsibility to give back and pay it forward. That’s why we are committed to supporting the fight against cancer in every way possible. For the ninth consecutive year, America’s Car-Mart has supported the American Cancer Society during its Drive Away Cancer campaign in October.
Nakia Wimbley, General Manager at America’s Car-Mart of Rogers North, says, “We all know someone who has cancer—family members, friends, co-workers. Fighting cancer is a cause we can all get behind. I’m proud to work for a company that gives back to such a worthy organization as the American Cancer Society. Our mission at Car-Mart has always been to positively impact our communities. Working together, we can make a difference in helping those afflicted with cancer.”
Catherine Tapp, Senior Development Manager II, American Cancer Society of Arkansas, says: “We are deeply grateful for the generous support from America’s Car-Mart. Their contribution plays a vital role in helping us advance our mission—not only within the Northwest Arkansas community, but across our region. Every dollar raised brings us closer to a future where we can end cancer as we know it, for everyone.”
“One of the most critical challenges cancer patients face after diagnosis is access to care. Transportation to and from treatment, and lodging when care is far from home, are often the biggest barriers. The American Cancer Society is working to eliminate these obstacles—ensuring that no patient has to choose between getting treatment and managing the logistics of care. With partners like America’s Car-Mart, we’re making it possible for more patients to receive the life-saving support they need, when and where they need it most.”
