Manheim is closing in on a $2 million giving milestone after raising $601,180 during its 2026 Back-to-School campaign benefiting Boys & Girls Clubs of America. Since launching in 2021, the annual campaign has grown significantly and expanded its impact in communities across the country.
Manheim Orlando team members brought a carnival theme to this year’s Back-to-School campaign, helping raise funds in support of local Boys & Girls Clubs.
The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile was among the attractions at Manheim Indianapolis’ ‘Touch a Truck’ event supporting Manheim’s annual Back-to-School campaign benefiting Boys & Girls Clubs.
“Crossing $600,000 in a single campaign and nearing $2 million since we started are milestones we’re incredibly proud of, and even more meaningful is the commitment behind those numbers,” said Alan Lang, senior vice president of Physical Services and Auctions at Cox Automotive. “For six years, our employees, clients and partners have continued to find new ways to show support for local Clubs. That’s an impact we’re proud to keep building.”
That commitment took several forms this year, including continued collaboration between Manheim sales and auction teams for a second year, along with donations from Manheim clients Element Remarketing, Hertz and Pinnacle Remarketing Powered by Location Services.
The campaign’s reach is growing along with Manheim itself. Following its 2025 acquisition by Cox Automotive, Manheim Maryland (formerly Bel Air Auto Auction) raised $22,182 for its local Boys & Girls Club, demonstrating how quickly new team members have embraced the culture of giving back that defines Manheim.
“The success of this campaign is a reflection of what’s possible when a company, its employees, clients and partners come together in support of young people,” said Chad Hartman, national vice president of corporate partnerships and engagement, Boys & Girls Clubs of America. “Through Manheim’s continued commitment to Boys & Girls Clubs, more youth have access to safe places, caring mentors and life-enhancing opportunities that help them thrive.”
Funds raised through the campaign are directed to Boys & Girls Clubs in the local markets where they are generated, supporting young people in the communities Manheim serves.
