Community Support at Co-Op Toyota

What an outstanding effort from the MDT team of 38 participants — including 10 dedicated members from Co-Op Toyota — who have already raised an impressive $19,679 for Muscular Dystrophy Tasmania in the 2025 Elders Point to Pinnacle and Brooks Point to Pub.

A special acknowledgment goes to the incredible crew who helped push Declyn all the way to the Pinnacle: Craig Davis, Vin Goldsmith, Peter Gee, Adrian Smith and Braden McGee. Their commitment and teamwork made the journey truly memorable. Declyn was supported every step of the way by his father and sister, adding an extra layer of significance to the challenge.

The team also joined MDT in celebrating the 30th anniversary of Point to Pinnacle at the official dinner, rounding out an inspiring and meaningful event.

There is still time to donate and support this important cause:

What a team, what an event, and what an incredible cause to stand behind.

What began as a new community initiative in 2024 has quickly become a meaningful annual tradition for the Co-Op Toyota team. For the second year in a row, employees from every department came together over two mornings to volunteer at Foodbank Tasmania.

Across our 2025 sessions, the team achieved an incredible amount:

• Packed 250 food relief hampers
• Sorted hundreds of kilograms of potatoes and onions
• Stocked and packed 1,500 cans of baked beans

It was a fantastic team effort and an incredibly rewarding way to give back to our community.

A huge thank you to Foodbank Tasmania for welcoming our team once again and for the vital work they do to support Tasmanians in need. We encourage members of the community to get involved and donate their time if they can—every hour makes a real difference.

Schools Tree Day 2025

On Friday 25th July 2025, we spent a glorious sunny day planting trees with the Grade 3 boys from St Virgil's Primary School for National Tree Day!

This marks our fifth year planting trees with St Virgil's and our second year at the senior campus in Austins Ferry — a tradition that began at the junior campus in Hobart. It's been incredibly rewarding to watch this partnership grow alongside the trees we’ve planted together over the years.

This year, we revisited the labyrinth — originally established by Bushy around 20 years ago — to see how much the trees planted in 2024 have grown. We also added new trees to the area, continuing our shared commitment to caring for the environment.

Co-Op Toyota proudly donated a $500 Plants of Tasmania Nursery gift voucher to St Virgil's to help purchase new plants for National Tree Day.

It's a privilege for these students to return to the senior campus and witness the lasting impact of their efforts year after year.

The 17th annual Co-Op Toyota Business Breakfast was held at the Hotel Grand Chancellor on Wednesday, 12 March 2025, drawing another full house for one of the most anticipated events on the local business calendar.

This year’s breakfast delivered an outstanding experience for guests, highlighted by a keynote address from Brendon Gale, CEO of the Tasmania Football Club.

Co-Op Toyota proudly contributed $4,400 towards the event. With 230 attendees across 23 tables, the Kingborough Tigers Football Club raised an impressive $12,895 through ticket sales, followed by an additional $3,811 through raffle sales.

We’re excited to announce that the 2026 Co-Op Toyota Business Breakfast is already locked in.

Save the date: Wednesday, 1 April 2026.

Go Orange for Muscular Dystrophy – A Successful Campaign!

From 1st to 8th June 2025, Co-Op Toyota proudly supported Go Orange for Muscular Dystrophy.

Our dealership was decked out in vibrant orange, and employees donned orange hats and polo shirts, all in the name of raising awareness and making a difference for those affected by neuromuscular conditions.

Throughout the week, we came together for activities like meat trays, sports cards, and the popular 'guess the number of lollies in the jar' competition. Thanks to everyone’s generosity and participation, we made a significant impact!

Thank you to all who donated and helped make Go Orange week a huge success!

Fight MND Big Freeze

In June 2024, we set the challenge to raise at least $2000 for the MND Big Freeze 10. While we didn't quite reach our goal, our General Manager, Richard Stokes, was the bigger person and took on the ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE anyway in a chilly 7 degrees. Well done, Richard, and thank you for taking on this challenge.

Our team at Co-Op Toyota was dedicated to raising funds and awareness for this important cause, and we couldn't have made such an impact without your support. Together, we made a meaningful contribution to the fight against MND.

Thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and supported us throughout Big Freeze 10. Your generosity and enthusiasm made this event a tremendous success!

Remember it's never too late to DONATE: https://support.fightmnd.org.au/fundraisers/cooptoyotabigfreezetohelpfightmnd
