In the spirit of community involvement, Doug Pilla Master Auto Care stands out as an exemplary member of their local community. Just like the Nene (Hawaiian Goose) symbolizes the importance of being active and engaged within the community, Doug Pilla Master Auto Care has demonstrated their commitment through participation in community events, charitable donations, and support for local causes.


They do more than just show up at events now and then; helping others is a big part of what they believe in and how they run their business. They often take part in activities that help both people and the whole area, building a strong sense of caring and support in everything they do.


This past Christmas season, they organized a heartwarming Toys for Tots campaign and ran a successful canned food drive for a local homeless shelter and church. Their dedication to giving back and supporting their neighbors truly embodies the spirit of the Alakai Award.


Kudos to Doug Pilla Master Auto Care for their outstanding efforts in making a positive impact in their community! They’ve really made a difference, showing everyone how a business can help out and be a good neighbor. They’ve set a great example, proving that businesses can do well and do good at the same time.
