WHAT: The SoCal Honda Dealers are continuing their Random Acts of Helpfulness for those who need it most this holiday season. Throughout November and December, the Helpful Guys in Blue are donating thousands of toys and non-perishable food items to local charity organizations and food banks, pumping thousands of gallons of free gas for Honda drivers through Christmas Eve, and so much more. From December 15^th through December 18^th, the Guys in Blue are turning into helpful blue elves and bringing #HelpfulHoliday celebrations to adults, families, kids, teens, and elders in need, to help everyone celebrate special Happy Honda Days.

The Guys in Blue will kick off the #HelpfulHoliday week of giving on Tuesday, December 15^th, by building and gifting bikes to at-risk teens and kids of Seeds of Hope, an organization that provides resources to the working poor in the Inland Empire. On Wednesday, December 16^th, the Guys in Blue will start the day serving warm meals for breakfast and lunch, and provide much-needed essentials for people in need at the Pasadena Union Station Homeless Services Adult Center. That same day, celebrations will continue at the Hollywood Boys & Girls Club with an early evening full of holiday activities, goodie bags, arts & crafts, and more, for more than 150 children, who will also get a chance to take photo ‘elfies’ with the Guys in Blue!

The #HelpfulHoliday celebrations continue on Thursday, December 17^th, to benefit Community Action Partnership of Orange County where the helpful guys in blue shirts will bring holiday cheer to deserving children, families, and the elderly from Anaheim Indepedencia Family Resource Center where clients will enjoy a holiday luncheon, gifts, and even a visit from Santa!

And to finish off a holiday week of helpfulness, SoCal Honda will host the annual holiday party for 250 visitors of Ocean Park Community Centers’ (OPCC) in Santa Monica, on Friday, December 18^th, complete with a warm holiday meal and helpful winter essentials, such as socks, rain ponchos, and toiletries.

WHY: It’s their job to be Helpful. Have you seen the Helpful Honda Guys in Blue in the TV commercials, doing meaningful Random Acts of Helpfulness? Well, the helpfulness is real, both in the commercials and in the real-world!

Providing holiday celebrations for those in need is just one of the many ways the SoCal Honda Dealers are being helpful in the community – no strings attached. The Helpful teams visit an average hundreds of locations each week –from the Inland Empire and Riverside County to Los Angeles and Orange Counties –to do small and large acts of helpfulness. They can be seen pumping free gas for Honda drivers with big Free Gas Tanker Trucks over the holidays; surprising kids of all ages with complimentary holiday treats and goodies from the Helpful Holiday Treat Truck; surprising families at ice-skating rinks with complimentary ice-skating fun for the family; visiting grocery stores and shopping centers to open doors and load packages for residents; surprising holiday thrill-seekers at Six Flags Magic Mountain with warm-holiday essentials like complimentary hot chocolate and gloves, and so much more. The Guys in Blue have also donated thousands of pounds of food to local food banks, and thousands of toys to local charities, in addition to special holiday events for the less fortunate this holiday season.
