At Elk Grove CDJR, we operate on a simple philosophy: a dealership should be a cornerstone of its community, not just a place to buy a car. As a key member of the Knight Auto Group, our footprint spans the entire Central Valley. We understand that the families who buy our Ram trucks in Galt and the commuters driving our Jeeps in Sacramento are the same people building our schools, running our local non-profits, and coaching youth sports.
Our mission is to ensure that as we grow, our community grows with us. We don’t just serve the Elk Grove area; we are actively invested in the well-being of our neighbors from Roseville down to Modesto.
We focus our resources where they can make the most immediate, tangible impact. By concentrating on three core areas, we ensure our contributions create lasting change rather than temporary fixes.
We believe the road to a better future starts in the classroom. Elk Grove CDJR partners with the Elk Grove Unified School District and surrounding educational foundations to provide school supplies, fund extracurricular programs, and sponsor vocational training. Whether it’s supporting high school auto-shop programs or donating backpacks for elementary students, we are committed to the next generation.
No family in the San Joaquin Valley should have to worry about their next meal. We work alongside regional food banks in Stockton and Lodi to organize quarterly food drives. Our “Fill the Truck” events utilize our Ram 1500 and 2500 inventory to physically haul thousands of pounds of non-perishable goods to distribution centers that serve our most vulnerable neighbors.
Sports teach resilience, teamwork, and discipline—values that align perfectly with the Knight Auto Group culture. We are a proud sponsor of youth leagues across Folsom, Rancho Cordova, and Sacramento. From Little League baseball diamonds to Friday night football lights, you will often see the Elk Grove CDJR banner supporting young athletes as they chase their goals.
Our community involvement isn’t limited to our immediate zip code. We have tailored our outreach to meet the specific needs of the diverse cities we serve.
The Sacramento & Elk Grove Corridor As our home base, Elk Grove and South Sacramento see our highest volume of activity. We are regulars at local festivals, Chamber of Commerce events, and holiday parades. Our goal is to be the most accessible, responsive business partner in the county.
Stockton, Lodi & Galt The agricultural heart of our region deserves distinct support. In these communities, we focus heavily on partnerships that support local farming families and food distribution networks. We understand the unique fabric of life in San Joaquin County and are dedicated to preserving it.
Roseville, Folsom & Rancho Cordova These rapidly growing communities are hubs for families and outdoor enthusiasts. Our work here often centers on environmental stewardship and outdoor recreation events, aligning with the “Jeep Life” culture that thrives near Folsom Lake and the American River.
Modesto & The Valley Extending our reach south to Modesto, we aim to bridge the gap for car buyers who need a reliable partner. Our community team actively seeks opportunities to support veteran organizations and housing initiatives in the Stanislaus County area.
We are always analyzing new opportunities to serve. If you represent a non-profit or community organization in Sacramento, Placer, or San Joaquin County, we want to hear from you.
