Paralyzed Veterans of America proudly celebrates a decade-long partnership with longtime supporter Penske Automotive Group, who donated $1.17 million in 2023 to the nonprofit to support paralyzed veterans nationwide. The amount is composed of donations from generous customers and employees of Penske Automotive Group, along with a matching contribution from the company.

“As we commemorate this remarkable milestone, we express our enduring gratitude to Penske Automotive for their unwavering dedication to those who have sacrificed for our country,” said Robert Thomas, national president of PVA. “Penske Automotive Group’s support helps fuel our mission at PVA and enables us to provide critical support and services to veterans with catastrophic injuries and diseases, like MS and ALS.”

Over the last decade, Penske Automotive is responsible for nearly $10 million of donations to PVA. This year’s donation, raised through Penske Automotive Group’s annual Service Matters campaign, will directly benefit veterans nationwide by providing the resources they need to live full and independent lives.

“We are honored to mark our tenth year alongside PVA, making a real difference for veterans facing spinal cord injuries and illnesses,” said Robert Kurnick Jr., president of Penske Automotive. “We offer our deepest gratitude to our dedicated team and customers who champion PVA’s mission and give so generously. Together, we’re empowering our heroes.”
