Drive For a Difference

Fred Anderson Toyota of Asheville is honored to host our annual charity campaign, DRIVE FOR A DIFFERENCE, a program that has been at the heart of our community since 2021. Since its inception Fred Anderson’s DRIVE FOR A DIFFERENCE has allowed us to give back to the communities that have supported us for so many years, fostering a deep relationship with our dealership and the communities we serve. 

Fred Anderson Toyota of Asheville has had a long-standing tradition of supporting charitable organizations, and DRIVE FOR A DIFFERENCE has become a key part of that legacy. Through DRIVE FOR A DIFFERENCE, we contribute $5000 each month to local charities with our employees and customers playing an active role in selecting the recipients. This program is a reflection of our commitment to making a meaningful impact in our community year after year. 

We proudly partner with several impactful organizations in our community:

Western Carolina Rescue Mission: Western North Carolina Rescue Ministries offers shelter, meals, and recovery programs for individuals experiencing homelessness. Their mission focuses on restoring hope and providing pathways toward stability and independence.

Hearts With Hands: Hearts With Hands passion is to help people who have been negatively affected by circumstances beyond their control by providing physical, spiritual, medical, economic and other necessary aid to victims of poverty, natural disaster, or famine.
