Helping a Member of the Matt's Family

When we say you’re apart of the Matt’s family, we mean it! One of our loyal customers came in not too long ago to get some work done on their F-150 and as we always enjoy hearing what is going on their lives, we got some saddening news from Jeff and Rachel. Their son, Adam, was in the hospital and it was not a good situation. Vern, our General Manager, let our team know and we wanted to do something to brighten Adam’s spirits. As we learned a little more about what Adam was going through, we knew we wanted to make sure he was comfortable and had some entertainment as he was going home. We gave them a Matt’s Auto blanket, a water bottle, and some games! We hope he has been able to play games, had lots of laughs, and enjoys his holiday weekend. Adam and his family are in our thoughts and prayers and we are so honored to have them as a part of the Matt’s Family.

A Night of Fun with the Team

In honor of National Go Fishing Day, Matt took a couple team members and headed to the lake! Many laughs, lots of fish, and a good night of some team bonding.

Earlier this year, Matt and his wife were able to take a trip to Mexico thanks to Dakota Wholesale Tire and Tires Only, along with other tire dealers from the surrounding area. During this trip, there was a super fun scavenger hunt where the top 2 winners would get $1,000 to donate to any charity of their choice. Matt was one of those winners and decided he wanted to give his donation to Sanford Children’s Fargo. In June, we were able to meet with a couple of staff members and give them the donation. Thank you to all your staff and everything you do for the children!

Want to hear something cheesy? It was National Cheese Day on June 4th! Our team agreed that the best way to celebrate was to throw some bread in the mix and make some grilled cheese for an afternoon snack! You could even say they were “grate”!

Honoring our Local Heroes

In honor of Armed Forces Day, our social media followers shared with us photos of their favorite veteran or current active duty military member. By doing this, they were entered to select a charity that Matt’s Automotive can donate to that benefits courageous veterans. Larry K. was nominated and chose the charity Hometown Hero Outdoors. Thank you to all active-duty military and our veterans!

A Sweet Treat for the End of the Week!

We love to celebrate Fridays! Matt treated the team to Carmel Rolls from Sweet Commotion! Safe to say everyone really enjoyed.

What's Your Favorite Flavor?

May 8th was National Have a Coke Day! Our team is a big fan of Coca-Cola and all the different flavors, so to celebrate each team member got their favorite flavor of Coca-Cola!

Matt’s Automotive wanted to celebrated National Nurses Day by rewarding some special nurses in the F-M area with a free lunch on us! We partnered with Frank’s Lounge and Texas Roadhouse to give Kaylee S. and Jenny A. a free lunch to them and three of their co-workers. Our whole Matt’s Automotive team appreciates everything you do for the community to keep us safe and healthy. You have been our heroes long before this pandemic came along.

May 5th was National Teacher Appreciation Day! We wanted to give a shout out to all the amazing teachers out there and show our appreciation! Our social media followers nominated their favorite teacher to win some great Matt’s Swag and a free oil change. We were happy to announce Melissa L. was the recipient of our gift.

For Mother’s Day, we wanted to say thanks to all the amazing moms out there! Our social media followers posted their favorite picture of their mom and told us why she was so amazing to enter her to receive a special Mother’s Day gift from Matt’s Auto. The gift consisted of an awesome spa package from Elite Therapeutic Massage & Health Partners, a Matt’s wine cooler, a bottle of wine, and a Matt’s pull bag. Congratulations to Jeanine H. for winning our Mother’s Day gift!

Visiting Moorhead High School's Business Class

Thank you Moorhead Area Public Schools for letting us come to the High School to talk to one of the Business classes about entrepreneurship and how to start a small business. We hope to see some of those businesses come to life in the near future!

Supporting your local Girl Scouts

For over a month, our local Girl Scouts came into our Moorhead and Fargo locations to practice their selling skills with the famous Girl Scout cookies. We were proud to help support the next generation of skilled women!

An Icy Challenge

We hope everyone had an awesome Giving Hearts Day! Two of our brave technicians did the ice bucket challenge for CCRI—Creative Care for Reaching Independence to help them raise money during such an important event in the F-M area.

Supporting our Next Entrepreneurs

Matt and the team made one little entrepreneur very happy when we ordered some products from Rayden’s Creations. When his mother participated in our 2019 Day of Service, we were so excited to hear that her son had created his own business, selling chapsticks and bath bombs, with a portion of the proceeds going to Homeward Animal Shelter. We were so happy to help support our young entrepreneurs and look forward to seeing your company, Rayden’s Creations, grow!

Moorhead Open House

A big thank you to everyone who was able to make it to our open house for our reopening of our original Moorhead location! We’re glad to be back home! It was a fun filled day with door prizes, tours and a lot of great guests!

Cares for Kids Radiothon

Sanford Health hosted a local radiothon in support of the childrens hospital. This event was to raise money to help fund unique programs, provide education, and purchase lifesaving equipment to save and transform lives here in the Fargo-Moorhead Area. We love getting to show our support for events like this and every dollar raised went towards a great cause!
