BEDFORD – “Let our family take care of your family” rings very true for Hobson Auto Group Owner and President Jeff Hobson when caring about his community. That’s why he wanted to ensure years of support for Youth First, Inc. with a multi-year donation that supports the organization’s programs and services in local schools.
Hobson Auto Group has invested in the health and well-being of Lawrence and Morgan County youth and families by putting in place a $2,000 donation for the next three years. The total amount of $6,000 was celebrated at a check presentation held on June 12 at one of Hobson’s Bedford dealerships. The funds donated to Youth First, Inc. provide mental health support and substance misuse prevention through their school-based student assistance program.
Hobson says, “Youth First is a great fit for our community. The services and programs that they provide in our schools are essential for the continued and future success of our students and their families. Hobson Auto Group is pleased to support Youth First.”
Youth First partners with school districts across Indiana to embed mental health professionals in school buildings. These professionals become specialized mentors for students and prevention coaches for parents and teachers. Youth First Mental Health Professionals build caring relationships, foster readiness for positive change, and boost resiliency while equipping students with valuable life skills. Their presence also contributes to a healthier and safer school environment.
Among the Hobson Auto Group stores are Hobson Chevrolet Buick GMC in Martinsville, Hobson Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Bedford, and Hobson Ford in Bedford. Hobson is committed to its foundation of strong family values and unparalleled customer service.
This gift demonstrates a thriving community partnership and highlights the vital need to equip young people with mental health support and positive influences.
