Supported by Manheim leadership, employees, vendors and customers nationwide, the Heart to Hearts program focuses on helping the Michael P. Fisher CICU at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Sibley Heart Center improve its equipment with the latest in cardiac technology and put a comforting touch on the sterile hospital environment.
Each year, employees hold donation drives for holiday gifts, receiving blankets, baby booties and Beanie Babies. to help the nursing staff make the CICU feel more like a home than a hospital.
The marquee event that brings together Manheim executives, vendors and customers nationwide is the annual Golf & Tennis Tournament, Reception and Auction held each spring in Atlanta. Since its inception in 1998, this event has raised more than $4.5 million for the Michael P. Fisher CICU. In 2006, the event raised more than $200,000.
The Heart to Hearts program is truly a partnership between Manheim and its communities. From challenge drives for customers at lots in Texas to the annual tournament in Georgia, the support and dedication to helping kids find a healthier life through treatment at the Michael P. Fisher CICU continue to be at the heart of Manheim's community commitment.

Mike Fisher was the former principal attorney for Manheim. His life was cut short at the age of 42 by a plane crash. The Heart To Hearts campaign was born out of grief and continues to be nurtured by our love and respect for Mike. It is dedicated to supporting the CICU that bears his name in the Sibley Heart Center of Children's. Manheim's goal is to help make the Michael P. Fisher CICU the finest facility of its kind in the world. Proceeds from the 2005 Heart To Hearts campaign will continue to bring much-needed support to the staff, families and, of course, the young patients at Children's.

As a company that relies on water, electricity and paint to conduct business every day, Manheim worked with its employees to identify ways to improve water and energy conservation, while reducing air pollutants. The result is "Go Green" with Manheim, a long-term conservation effort that supports parent company Cox Enterprises’ Cox Conserves, a national program aimed at further reducing Cox’s total carbon footprint by an additional 20 percent by 2017. "Go Green" focuses on six key areas within our reconditioning operations:
Working with DuPont, Manheim designed and implemented the exclusive use of waterborne basecoat painting at its operating locations. By moving from solvent- to water-based paint, Manheim is able to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 50 percent – an impressive feat that earned a 10-person team of Manheim and DuPont employees the 2007 Sustainable Growth Excellence Award. Sixteen operating locations plan to switch to water-based paint this year; 11 locations have completed this process:
Manheim is implementing a new paint mix management process at its on-site paint shops. The process uses less paint by creating only the amount of paint needed each day – thereby reducing waste – and the release of air pollutants by 10 percent, or 36 tons. And because the remaining waste is water-soluble, it is not hazardous.
Manheim is inspecting its auction locations, reviewing each location's operating plan and implementing processes for measurably reducing hazardous waste at each location. Through on-site training, Manheim's employees are learning how to handle and dispose of hazardous waste in the most environmentally responsible manner possible, including the recycling of used automotive oil, waste paint solvents and used antifreeze. Eight locations plan to adopt Hazardous Waste Management techniques this year.
As a significant user of water, Manheim proactively sought a solution to reduce its water usage at its reconditioning facilities. Last September, working with Ashland, Manheim established the Manheim Water Conservation Center at Manheim Pennsylvania. The Water Conservation Center uses a sophisticated four-step wastewater treatment process that enables Manheim to reduce its daily water demand by 60 percent, and return treated water to the municipal water treatment system in a pretreated condition.
Manheim's second Water Conservation Center is scheduled to open at Manheim Georgia in June, 2008. The Center is expected to treat 15,000 gallons of wastewater and produce up to 9,000 gallons of high quality reusable water daily.
In the fall of 2007, Manheim California partnered with Ice Energy to install off-peak power rooftop chillers. The chillers generate ice at night, which is then used during the day to help cool the building. The highly efficient system reduces the facility's peak power usage from 70 KW to 2.1 KW, reduces annual carbon dioxide emissions by more than 21 tons and significantly reduces nitrogen oxide emissions.
By taking advantage of the Anaheim Public Utility's pioneering peak shifting incentive program and by enrolling in a Time-of-Use rate structure, Manheim California will save an estimated 27 percent on its annual electricity bill. Plans are underway for nine additional locations to adopt Energy Management techniques in 2008.
Manheim New Jersey recently installed photovoltaic solar panels, which capture the sun's radiation energy and convert it directly to electricity. This initiative generates 15 percent of the detail shop's electricity, reduces overall energy consumption and creates long-term savings for the operation.
The solar panels cover the usable portion of the detail shop's 42,000-square-foot roof and produces 136 megawatt hours annually. This equates to enough energy to power 12 average-size homes and prevent the emissions of 95 tons of greenhouse gases. The panels are maintenance free and have a life expectancy of more than 20 years.
"At Manheim, we believe that being environmentally responsible is not a one-time event, but an ongoing commitment to our employees, customers and communities. We take that commitment seriously and look forward to watching the exciting initiatives already underway in the Go Green with Manheim program grow and expand to other Manheim facilities domestically and internationally."
