Rene Cardenas and Cardenas Mazda are great supporters of the Brownsville Independent School District (BISD) and the students of the Brownsville Community. For 3 consecutive years, Cardenas Mazda has awarded a brand-new Mazda to one lucky graduating senior for perfect attendance. This is a year-long initiative to encourage and improve student attendance and enrollment in BISD. The winner is the result of a drawing from a culmination of perfect attendance students from each high school. Three other consolation prizes are also drawn. Additionally, 110 elementary, middle, and high school students, two per school, vie for 15 grand prize bundles as well. This program has been instrumental in encouraging perfect attendance thereby increasing academic achievement. There are many other initiatives that Cardenas has supported our Valley communities.

By supporting the communities of the Valley, Cardenas has went beyond having a customer base to creating fans from Brownsville, Harlingen, Los Fresnos, San Benito, Mercedes, Raymondville, and South Padre, Island.
