Larry H. Miller day
of service
More than 100 employees of Larry H. Miller dealerships across Arizona volunteered in their communities on April 26 during the Larry H. Miller Day of Service, an annual event that honors the company’s founder, the late Larry H. Miller, on his birthday.
In the Tucson area, employees from Larry H. Miller Volkswagen cleaned and repaired used books for Reading Seed and Literacy Connects, others from Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep built bookshelves at Make Way for Books, and employees from Larry H. Miller Alfa Romeo, Fiat and Dodge Ram volunteered at Habitat for Humanity, working to build a home for a local family.
