The results are in—and they’re nothing short of extraordinary. Thanks to the collective effort, passion, and commitment of our employees, customers, and community partners, Sheehy Auto Stores proudly donated $351,000 to the American Heart Association (AHA) through this year’s Sheehy Has Heart campaign.
Now in its twelfth year, this companywide initiative continues to make a powerful impact—funding critical cardiovascular research, prevention, and education programs that help save lives across the Mid-Atlantic region. Since its launch in 2014, Sheehy Has Heart has contributed more than $3.3 million to the AHA’s lifesaving mission.
“Each year, our employees, customers, and partners rally together to make a meaningful difference for families affected by heart disease,” said Vince Sheehy, President of Sheehy Auto Stores. “We’re proud to champion this cause and are committed to advancing the American Heart Association’s mission of building healthier hearts and longer lives.”
This year’s campaign truly showed what it means to have heart. Across our 30 dealerships, teams hosted CPR demonstrations, health screenings, and walking challenges, and participated in heart-healthy community events that promoted wellness and connection. From National Walking Day to Go Red for Women and the Greater Washington Region Heart Walk, our employees once again showed that Sheehy’s commitment extends far beyond the showroom floor.
The American Heart Association recognized Sheehy’s longstanding partnership with deep appreciation. “The continued dedication of Sheehy Auto Stores is helping save lives,” said Soula Antoniou, Executive Director of the AHA Greater Washington Region. “Their support funds groundbreaking research, expands education programs, and strengthens local outreach efforts that make a real difference in preventing heart disease and stroke.”
What began as a simple idea—to unite our Sheehy family behind a shared cause—has grown into one of our most defining traditions. Every dealership, every event, and every act of generosity plays a part in this shared success story.
To every Sheehy customer, employee and partner who participated, contributed, or encouraged others to get involved—thank you. Your enthusiasm, compassion, and teamwork continue to drive our mission forward and remind us that when Sheehy Has Heart, our communities thrive.
