Giving Back to the Community
At Central Park Express, Central Park Garage, and Leon’s Auto Center, giving back is at the heart of what we do. We believe it truly takes a village to support one another, and we’re proud to partner with three incredible causes that make a real difference— Brakes for Breasts to fight breast cancer, our annual Food Drive supporting the New Hampshire Food Bank, and Toys for Tots to bring holiday joy to local children. Together with our customers and community, we’re helping create a stronger, more caring New Hampshire—one act of kindness at a time.
Brakes for Breasts
Supporting a VACCINE to PREVENT Breast Cancer
Brakes for Breasts is a nationwide fundraising campaign in the automotive repair industry. Each October, participating independent auto repair shops:
- Give customers free brake pads or shoes with any paid brake service.
- The customer pays for labor and any additional parts needed.
- The shop then donates 10% of the brake service sales to the Cleveland Clinic Breast Cancer Vaccine Research Fund, which is working on a vaccine to prevent breast cancer.
It started in 2011 with a small group of shops and has since raised several million dollars. It’s both a cause marketing initiative and a way for shops to engage their communities while supporting breast cancer research.
Thanksgiving Canned Food Drive
Join us in giving back this Thanksgiving at Central Park Express, Central Park Garage, and Leon’s Auto Center! We’re hosting a food drive to support the New Hampshire Food Bank. Bring in any nonperishable items during your next service visit and receive $10 off an oil change or $30 off any repair.
Your donations will help provide Thanksgiving meals for local families—and we’ll match your discount with a donation of our own to the NH Food Bank. Not due for service yet? No problem—you can still drop off items and we’ll credit your discount for your next visit.
Together, let’s make this Thanksgiving a little brighter for our community.
In particular, we’re looking for the following preferred Thanksgiving foods: stuffing, cranberry sauce, gravy, canned veggies, canned fruit, bread mixes, cornbread mixes, Bisquick, or any shelf-stable bread-making mixes, and shelf-stable dessert mixes, as well as shelf-stable milk. Additionally, other food items needed include canned pasta, mac & cheese, soups, pasta, non-glass sauces, peanut butter, and cereal. Your support makes a world of difference – thank you!
Toys for Tots
This holiday season, we’re proud to partner with Toys for Tots to bring joy to local children in need. When you donate a new, unwrapped toy at any of our three locations—Central Park Garage, Central Park Express, or Leon’s Auto Center—you’ll receive $25 off any service of $250 or more. The greatest need is for gifts for infants and kids aged 10 and up. Together, we can help make sure every child feels the magic of Christmas with toys under the tree.
