About Us

The Rhode Island Auto Dealers Foundation (RIADF) brings together local dealerships united by a shared commitment to strengthening the communities they serve. Beyond providing vehicles and service, our members support local charities, sponsor events, and contribute to causes that make a real difference in the daily lives of Rhode Islanders.

RIADF exists to recognize, amplify, and expand these efforts—showcasing the role auto dealerships play as trusted community partners and ensuring that their impact is felt not just on the road, but across neighborhoods throughout the state.

“Supporting local communities means ensuring the people who live and work around us have the opportunities and resources they need to succeed”
