MT. LAUREL, N.J. -

The Holman Automotive Group announced this week that Steve Holman has joined the company as manager, community affairs. Formerly a member of the board of directors, Holman joins his sister, Mindy Holman, the company’s president and chief executive officer, and his father, Joseph Holman, the company’s chairman. 

Steve Holman will help lead the organization’s various community service and charitable initiatives.

“I am extremely proud to welcome my son to our company in an active management role,” Joseph Holman said. “He has served as a member of the board of directors since 1997. Philanthropy and community service have been a core part of our corporate philosophy since my father founded the company in 1924 and I believe Steve will flourish in this role which is incredibly important to who we are as an organization.”

To expand upon the responsibilities of the manager of community affairs, Holman will serve as the face of the group throughout the community, including the oversight of the company’s grant program, which provides over $1 million in funds to more than 300 organizations annually, according to the company. He has already got the ball rolling in the position by establishing a new committee to review grant requests while also transitioning the application process to an online format.

“I am delighted that my brother has joined the family business and is taking on the vital role of managing our community affairs,” Mindy Hollman said. “It is great to have Steve in this position, a family member who will devote 100 percent of his time to our charitable efforts. His unwavering dedication and keen intellect along with his true passion for helping others will be the driving force behind our community outreach efforts for many years to come.”
