At United Auto Sales, we believe that strong communities start with supporting the people who live in them—and that includes making sure local students have the tools they need to succeed. This year, we were proud to participate in the 3rd Annual Steet Ponte Auto Group School Supplies & Backpack Drive, helping provide a total of 576 backpacks filled with essential school supplies to students in our area. Each backpack included supplies like folders, crayons, glue sticks, scissors, pencils and more to help students get ready for the year ahead. Along with the other Steet Ponte stores on Commercial Drive, Steet Ponte Volkswagen was proud to support students in the Utica City School District. We hope these backpacks help students start the school year feeling prepared, motivated and confident. A new school year is full of possibilities, and we’re happy to help give local students a strong start. Wishing all of our local students a fantastic school year!
