Starling Chevrolet Commits to Raising $55,000 FOR MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital
Starling Chevrolet recently announced their commitment to the MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital by committing $55,000 in donations through their “Drive to 55” fundraising initiative. This initiative is being facilitated through the Starling Chevrolet sales and service teams, located at 1607 North Highway 17 in Mount Pleasant.
Serving your community is a core value of leading American manufacturer, Chevrolet. In 2017, Chevrolet launched a global initiative called ‘Chevy Cares’ which includes focused incentives and funding to help eradicate Breast Cancer, support our military as they transition into civilian life, and promote healthy living amongst today’s youth. However, the family and staff at Starling Chevrolet wanted to take that initiative one step further by giving back to a local organization that makes a positive impact on the families of the Lowcountry.
“As the world turned its attention to battling the global pandemic of COVID-19, our future generations continued to be impacted through illnesses, diseases, and accidents,” said General Manager Joe Sarro. Regardless of a family’s financial status, we believe no child should ever be turned away for the healthcare they need. They deserve our very best.”
“We are grateful for Mr. Sarro and the entire Starling Chevrolet team for their dedication to support our Lowcountry communities,” said Mark Scheurer, M.D. Chief Children’s & Women’s Services, MUSC. “They understand that engaged businesses and communities raise healthier children who perform better in school and may even form healthier lifestyles. We appreciate their support and continued efforts for our youngest residents.”
Starling Chevrolet is part of the Starling Automotive Group and is led by Mount Pleasant resident, Joe Sarro. Mr. Sarro and his team, comprised of Lowcountry natives, embody what it means to be a community partner through their support of organizations such as Toys for Tots, Mount Pleasant Recreation Department, Wando High School Band, just to name a few.
