Atkins Kroll announces the return of the Back-To-School Test Drives to support local schools

Atkins Kroll presented the faculty and staff of Wettengel Elementary School with a $1,914 Community Matters Donation after the school successfully rallied supporters to complete 62 test drives during the Community Matters driving campaign in 2025.

Atkins Kroll Guam is inviting the community to support local schools through its second annual Community Matters: Back to School Test Drive Campaign, taking place August 3 through August 31, 2026, at Atkins Kroll Toyota showroom in Guam. 

 The campaign encourages residents to visit the dealership, test drive any Toyota vehicle and cast a vote for the school they would like to support. At the end of the campaign, the school receiving the most votes in Guam will receive a $1,914 Community Matters donation. 

 “Our Community Matters program is rooted in giving back to the communities we proudly serve,” said Tia Perez, AK Marketing Manager.

“Through this Back-to-School campaign, we’re providing a simple and meaningful way for residents to support local schools and educational programs while experiencing Toyota’s latest lineup of vehicles,” added Perez. 

 The campaign builds on the success of last year’s initiative. In Guam, Wettengel Elementary School, home of the Binadu, rallied its community to complete 62 test drives and earned the $1,914 Community Matters donation, a nod to Atkins Kroll’s founding year of 1914. Other schools, including Southern High School, Marcial A. Sablan Middle School, and C.L. Taitano Elementary School, also generated school pride and support that made the campaign a success. 

HOW IT WORKS 

Participants must possess a valid driver’s license. To participate, individuals can visit the Atkins Kroll showroom in Guam, complete a test drive in any Toyota vehicle, and submit a digital vote for the local school they would like to support. 

Each completed test drive counts as one vote. The school receiving the most votes by the end of the campaign will be awarded the Community Matters donation.
