In The Community
We Enjoy Giving Back To Our Community
As small business owners, we get to decide how and when to give back to our community and our employees. It’s up to us as store owners–not up to the national presidents or higher up executives at the corporate level. We believe in giving back, and we frequently support local sports teams, school fundraisers, 4-H groups, and community events in the Palouse area. The best part about being a locally owned business is having the freedom and the ability to give back to our local communities, and knowing that the dollars we donate are staying right here, in the communities we care about. When you shop at your local NAPA store, your dollars support local families and local communities, not large, national corporations.
At Kuhl Auto Parts, we’re more than just a business; we’re a dedicated member of our community.
Our roots run deep in the towns of Potlatch, Colfax, and Pullman, and we believe in nurturing these connections through active participation and support. Below is a snapshot of our community involvement.
We Are Sponsors of Children's Education
We believe that investing in children’s education is not just a duty but a privilege. We take pride in being active sponsors of educational initiatives that empower our youth. Whether through school supplies, sports programs, or educational clubs, our goal is to help every child succeed and build a brighter future for our entire community.
