Community

We Care

At Louisiana’s 1st Choice Auto Auction we care about our community, a philosophy reflected in our daily operations and our commitment to local, regional, and national charities.

We Give

We do a variety of fundraising throughout the year including our Annual Charity Golf Tournament in October, Options fundraising season, and special auction events like our Tailgate and Anniversary sale. Our customers, staff, and vendors join forces and wholeheartedly support so many great causes. Through this collective spirit of giving we enrich our community and our own lives.
Since opening our auction bay doors in May 2002, Louisiana’s 1st Choice Auto Auction, with help from employees, vendors, and customers, raised over $700,000 in cash and goods. Our 12th Annual Charity Golf Tournament in October 2022 raised $20,000 which was donated to Options, Child Advocacy Services, and Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center. Our Geaux Pink fundraiser in October 2018 raised $15,000 for Mary Bird Perkins. We are grateful for the generosity and commitment of all who participate in our events and support these worthy causes.
