Community Involvement
October 2022 – MATTER Food Boxes & The Sanneh Foundation Event
On October 18 th , 2022, we hosted our annual food boxing event at Lupient Buick GMC to culminate and celebrate a successful two-month campaign where we were able to raise $10,700 for MATTER by donating $100 for every vehicle sold at that dealership. Employee volunteers from all Lupient dealerships in Minnesota came together to assemble a total of 1,000 healthy snack packs for the MATTERbox program. These packs were then delivered to The Sanneh Foundation in Saint Paul. We would like to extend our gratitude to everyone who was involved in the campaign and boxing event.
August 2021 – MATTER Food Boxes & The Sanneh Foundation Event
In mid-August 2021, 20 Lupient employees from all Lupient dealerships in Minnesota volunteered to assemble and deliver 750 healthy snack & meal kits to The Sanneh Foundation in Saint Paul. Lupient donated $10,000 to MATTER, and they provided the supplies for the kits. The donation was presented to Tony Sanneh by Lupient Buick GMC General Manager, Tim Ciccarelli, and Lupient Automotive Group Digital Strategist, Cody Carpenter. Sanneh also gave them a tour of their facility, which is now being remodeled after receiving devastating fire damage.

This event helps many child-focused organizations such as Big Brother Big Sister, Make-A-Wish, and the Viking Children's Fund.

Operation Warm - July 2015
Lupient Chevrolet partnered with Operation Warm for their charity event July 16th, 2015. About 200 people came out to support the cause. The evening was a success with live music, beer donated by Fulton Brewery, food catered by Jimmy’s, a huge silent auction, and a chance to win a 6-month lease for a Chevrolet Silverado. Attendees left with full stomachs and prizes while the children in need that Lupient Chevrolet was raising money for had many warm coats on the way. This winter, many children will feel the warmth of a brand new coat with the help of Operation Warm and Lupient Chevrolet.
