Helping underserved families is
another cornerstone for Susan which
is why she is a proud supporter of
Ronald McDonald House Charities of
San Diego. Her daughter, Adrienne,
recently took over her position on
the board and their employees
sometimes join them in their
volunteerism. Susan also devotes
much of her time to the Salvation
Army and the San Diego Rescue
Mission which holds a special place in
her heart because they are going out
and making a difference to change
lives of those who are homeless,
above and beyond food and shelter.

Their devotion to the community and those
they serve does not stop at helping other
organizations. As the owners of Hoehn Motors,
they have also made these values part of their
business. At the dealerships, they have a full-time
Corporate Chaplain, Roy, who is dedicated to
drawing social good into their company. He is
there for their employees, always available as
a helping hand or shoulder to lean on in times
of need and inspiring and elevating the morale.
Chaplain Roy is responsible for leading all of
their social good initiatives which include food
drives and fix-up the neighborhood days.
Above and beyond the great work she does
and the honors she has received (including
the documentary about her bible verse
memorization technique which was just
released), her proudest moment is having her
entire family together at Thanksgiving. Having a
strong and united family is her greatest delight.

By sharing her devotion to her faith and the
community, Susan hopes that she can inspire
others to do the same. She shared with us
her advice to finding a way to give back to the
community that is meaningful to you: “Find
places that you are passionate about, find
causes that pull your heartstrings, and do not
just write the check, get involved”. As Susan
can attest, going out and doing good gives a
level of fulfillment that is incomparable.
