Working for the Russ Darrow Group is working for your community. We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community at large. Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others -- for their sake and our own.
The Russ Darrow Group strives to exemplify the best of businesses that feel a strong commitment to the communities they serve. The Darrow family encourages the Russ Darrow Group team to a high standard of involvement, giving generously of their time and resources to support countless individuals, groups, and organizations that represent all walks of life.
The Russ Darrow Group has committed to an annual Season of Giving that focuses on fostering awareness of community concerns and achievements. The campaign looks to assist in the betterment of each and every community we live and work in through education, donations and volunteer opportunities both on and off-site.
FOCUS ON YOUTH
Beginning in 2019, Russ Darrow Group joined forces with a team of local employers, educators, case managers, and community professionals to take part in the Inspire Washington County program. The program looks to unite educators and employers to address youth career and life skill gaps, establish a talent pipeline for local businesses, and build awareness of career and employment opportunities in Washington County.
Russ Darrow Group has supported and partnered with Junior Achievement for over two decades – with the first major fundraiser hosted in 1999. Russ Darrow Group most recently entered into an agreement to sponsor the Transportation Shop in the JA Finance Park – a financial literacy laboratory that exists to inspire and prepare youth for success.
Russ Darrow Group’s has recently partnered with the State of Wisconsin’s Youth Apprenticeship Program. The program allows high school students in the Milwaukee area the opportunity to work in an Automotive Technician apprenticeship for 1 or 2 years. During this time, they earn school credit and learn state of the art skills and knowledge while working with a team of Master Technicians.
Russ Darrow Group has also partnered with the Cristo Rey Network to provide valuable work-study internships across various departments within our company. This collaboration not only offers hands-on experience but also helps interns gain valuable knowledge and insight into the diverse world of the automotive industry.
Russ Darrow Group believes in building our youth for the future – providing them with the skills and knowledge that will allow them to succeed in their education and career, whether that be in our industry or another.
