TMMK IS ALL HEART!
Incredible Turnout for Heart Walk

GEORGETOWN, KENTUCKY, (April 19, 2008) —TMMK’s Signature Event of the Year was the American Heart Association Heart Walk held April 19 at Commonwealth Stadium in Lexington. A whopping 454 TMMK team members, their families and pets participated in the event. That number is more than double the amount of walkers at 2007’s Signature Event-the Asthma Walk.

The Heart Walk was held under cloudy skies which seemed to part on cue just as Team Toyota posed for its massive group photo. The incredible turnout resulted in more than $10,000 raised by TMMK team members. That’s in addition to the $5,000 corporate sponsorship from TMMK.

The Heart Walk is just one of of multiple ways that TMMK proves its commitment to the community through both monetary contributions and personal involvement of its nearly 7,000 team members.

Communities Benefit From TMMK's Volunteer Day

GEORGETOWN, KENTUCKY, (May 2, 2008) —Walls were spackled and painted, fences built, hay bailed, flowers planted, horses groomed and 400lb slabs of polished marble removed from, a soon to be torn down, building. Those are just a few of the numerous activities TMMK team members participated in during the annual Volunteer Day held on April 30. On this day, TMMK allows team members to volunteer at selected non-profit agencies. This activity is during the normal working day and team members are paid regular wages for the day. A separate day will be held May 7 for second and third shift team members to participate.

Community Relations compiled a list of sites that were in need of volunteer help, visited each site and then designated which team members had the skills best needed to tackle the assigned projects.
