We want to acknowledge all the incredible work Health Care Workers and First Responder have done and continue to do. Thank You!
For decades, the Trotman Auto Group has supported local hospitals and health care workers through cash and gift donations. A little something we can do to giving our helping hand.
The Langley Memorial Hospital is part of the Fraser Health system. It is responsible for providing quality health care services across Langley, BC and can provide a wide range of services to individuals in need. The best way to help the Langley Memorial Hospital is by donating directly to the Langley Memorial Hospital Foundation.
Our Involvement:
Since 2012 the Trotman Auto Group has consistently donated to the Langley Memorial Hospital’s Maternity ward. TAG also was instrumental in the purchase of much-needed equipment and technology for the Pediatric wing in the same hospital.
Unfortunately, many students at Jackson Elementary in Abbotsford are not always able to go to school in the morning on a full belly. When children are hungry, they have a difficult time staying focused on a task, tend to have lower self-esteem, and are more likely to be absent on a school day. In fact, 1/3rd of all food bank users in Canada are children. Ensuring the children in our community are properly fed is one of the best ways we can help improve our community.
Our Involvement:
Employees of TAG join the Jackson Elementary School every Tuesday for their breakfast feeding program. We challenge all local businesses in the area to help, as making sure the children in our community have the greatest shot at success in life is one of the most important things we can do.
Informally founded in 1981, The Surrey Crime Prevention Society takes a holistic approach to community safety.

Our Involvement:

In 1983, the Surrey Food Bank Society opened their doors for what was supposed to be a temporary amount of time. The economy had tanked, and the Society was deemed to be a solution until things turned around. Over time the Surrey Food Bank grew into a 7,000 sq. ft. warehouse in Whalley with a core staff of 13 and a group of over 100 active volunteers. After 26 years of operation, the Surrey Food Bank realized they are a core fixture of what makes this community better.
Our Involvement:
In October 2016, members of the Mainland Ford family participated in #WeScareHunger in cooperation with Ford WE HQ. These individuals collected over 2,200lbs of food to donate to the Surrey Food Bank with the help of everyone who participated.

Our Involvement:
In 2015, the Trotman Auto Group contributed to BabyGoRound by helping to acquire a minivan for the charity. This vehicle allowed them to pick up donations from drop off locations and deliver them back to the facility. The van has also been branded, leading to an increase in awareness of the organization, and has been crucial for increasing the number of donated items.
