The recent wildfires in Southern California have left a devastating mark on this beautiful and vibrant region. While we are on the other side of the country here at Mercedes-Benz of Owings Mills, our hearts go out to those affected by this disaster, and we know that many of our customers, particularly those with military ties, may have connections to the Los Angeles area. Here is how Mercedes-Benz has provided meaningful assistance to those affected by the wildfires.
A Commitment to Community…
Mercedes-Benz is an automaker whose reach extends far beyond manufacturing and selling luxury vehicles. Their commitment is to its customers, employees, and the broader communities in which its dealerships operate.
True to its longstanding commitment to community involvement, Mercedes-Benz has donated $500,000 to support critical relief efforts in the Los Angeles area. This contribution, which includes support from all Mercedes-Benz US entities, will benefit the American Red Cross and the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation. The funds will go toward crucial relief services like shelter, food, and emergency assistance to those affected.
Beyond the donation to the Red Cross and the Los Angeles Fire Department, Mercedes-Benz Financial Services is offering up to a 60-day payment deferral and other assistance to customers in the affected areas, providing flexibility during this difficult time. Also, Mercedes-Benz is utilizing its advanced in-car technology to deliver critical notifications to those in the affected areas, helping them navigate safely and access emergency assistance.
