Biener Audi presented a Resusci Anne CPR training unit to Roslyn Hook & Ladder Company at the dealership at 795 Northern Blvd., Great Neck, NY. Biener Audi is a member of the Greater New York Automobile Dealers Association which administers the CPR donations on behalf of the National Automobile Dealers Association Charitable Foundation. New York State Senator Jack Martins and New York State Assemblywoman Michelle Schimel officiated the event.
“It’s a great honor to present the Roslyn Hook & Ladder Company with this life-saving CPR unit. They do such an incredible job protecting our community. It’s the least we can do!” said Andrew Weinstock, Executive Vice President of Biener Audi.
A true family business, Biener Audi has for the past 80-plus years proudly helped Long Island drivers get behind the wheel of some of the finest cars in the world. Since opening their doors in 1929, they have welcomed tens of thousands of New York residents to their dealership. Biener Audi has been named one of the best dealerships of the year by DealerRater.com, and they were a recipient of the coveted Audi Magna Society award. The dealership also recently won an international service award from the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences for exemplary service and customer care.
New-car dealers throughout the country devote much of their time and money to the development or projects that enrich the lives of people in their communities. In cities across the country, tens of thousands of citizens have been taught how to provide CPR on training units donated by new-car dealers because of this program. CPR training units help save lives and give comfort and security to those trained.
The donation is part of the National Automobile Dealers Association’s community outreach program. NADA’s program is administered locally by GNYADA. The units allow personnel to train area residents on the correct way to provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), allowing those trained to save the lives of countless people who suffer heart attacks and are in need of immediate attention. Nationwide, since 1975, franchised automobile dealers have donated thousands of manikins worth more than $4 million on which more than two million people have been trained.
