Since March of 2009 Pohanka’s “Pay it Forward” program has donated $207,562.00 to over 520 different local non-profit organizations & causes chosen by our customers!

Our goal is to keep helping the community with this program. However, we can only do this if we continue to inspire commerce. This money is being taken directly from our marketing efforts, so please help us by spreading the word to your supporters, board members, employees, family, and friends.
