Feldman Chevrolet: Giving Back to the Latino Community

If you only knew what we, Cafecito Caliente are up to. Way too many projects almost ready to be announced. Fun stuff too! With the help of friends from Feldman Chevrolet of Lansing, the Lansing Lugnuts, and MSU Federal Credit Union, we are going to hit more of the 40 ideas that I had written in 2007 that I thought would build community. A big shout out to the folks at Feldman Chevrolet of Lansing. They took a chance on us in May of 2019 sponsoring us for the Cinco de Mayo 5k Run/Walk. General Manager Joseph Rodriguez, Edwin Sanchez, Amber Kristyn Wright Gilberto Gonzales and the rest of the team at Feldman Chevrolet have given Cafecito a chance, and really the Greater Lansing Latino community a chance to build something here that not only builds community, but could lift up your families in ways you didn’t think possible.

I was born and raised in Lansing, son of former farm workers who have dedicated their lives towards helping people with no fanfare. They just do it quietly and almost effortlessly. Feldman Chevrolet offered to help Cafecito build a community. They genuinely care about people. Not just the people they serve, but the community around them. They do this because it’s the right thing to do. And they do it effortlessly and also with no fanfare. These are the kind of people that we need in Lansing – off my soapbox

written by seinpaul65

Cafecito Caliente has made the decision to move the Frida 5k Walk/Run to a Virtual only event. Covid just leaves too many obstacles and risks to chance. With this decision, we get to move forward with the “Life Happens, Cafecito Helps” philosophy of trying to help other organizations and more importantly the people they serve. Our focus with the Frida 5k will be to help the Capital Area Latina Youth (CALY) organization.

The mission of CALY is to create a network of Lansing-area Latina youth to foster empowerment, education, cultural advancement, and leadership among Latina youth in middle school and high school. 100% of the profits will go to CALY. There is also an opportunity to donate and 100% of those donations will also go to CALY. Any fees associated with those donations, Cafecito will cover. Keep in mind, that even one dollar is so appreciated!

Cost: Register by May 24, 2021: $30.00 You will love the shirt and medal soon to be revealed!

written by seinpaul65

General Manager Joe Rodriguez takes a few moments to explain the customer experience at Feldman.

Cafecito Caliente proudly announces Feldman Chevrolet of Lansing, led by Joseph Rodriguez, as its main sponsor for the Cinco de Mayo 5k Run/Walk. The race will be held Saturday, May 2, 2020 which will start and finish in front of Cooley Law School Stadium.

Located in Lansing, MI, Feldman’s Bud Kouts Chevrolet guarantees a hassle free buying experience. With 40 acres of land, holding thousands of new and used vehicles, customers will have no trouble finding a vehicle that fits their needs. As part of the Feldman Automotive team, customers are able to choose from the largest inventory of vehicles in the state of Michigan. To ensure a less stressful car buying experience, Feldman’s Bud Kouts Chevrolet offers The Feldman Advantage, which consists of a 3-day buyback guarantee, a price match protection, and many more amenities.

Another part of the Feldman advantage is access to eight Feldman Service and Collision Centers and their wide array of loaner vehicles. Feldman’s Bud Kouts Chevrolet promises to take care of all you car buying needs!

Many in the Lansing Latino community will often say that compared to Grand Rapids and Saginaw, there really isn’t much for the Latino community and we are the Capitol of Michigan. Much thanks to Joseph Rodriguez for taking a leap of faith in sponsoring Lansing’s very first Cinco de Mayo 5k race in 2019 and again here in 2020!
