VanDevere Volunteers – Haven of Rest Ministries

Nothing better than supporting our community🙏

While we usually are servicing vehicles, a group of our team served meals for the folks at @havenofrestministries The VanDevere team is thankful for the opportunity to help the people of Akron. This is one of many volunteer events our team does each year. We try to find new groups to serve in our community for the betterment of the people of Akron. Thank you Haven of Rest for all you do and we appreciate the opportunity to be a part of the process by serving dinner to the homeless. It has been a great experience for all of us.

Do you have a group that our team can volunteer at? Please send your ideas our way by emailing katie.bender@vandevere.com with information on your organization. If we are unable to volunteer, we would appreciate the opportunity to have them join our Thrive & Drive program. We look forward to your suggestions and hearing your story.

Thrive & Drive Program Applications

VanDevere loves giving back to the youth in the community!

We are looking for organizations, youth sports teams, churches, nonprofits, etc. that are driven to help grow and support the Akron youth. If you know of a group or are a part of a group that would like to raise money for the children, please contact katie.bender@vandevere.com to get details on how VanDevere can support.

The Program we have is called Thrive & Drive. VanDevere donates a two year lease of a vehicle and the groups sell $10 raffle tickets for the chance to win. The winner could also opt for the cash prize of $2,500! The organizations get to keep 100% of the proceeds they make. Every group must fill out an application and be interviewed by our team to be sure the proceeds go to the right families.
