DEL RIO, TX — This holiday season, Hyundai of Del Rio proved once again that giving back is more than a slogan it’s a way of life.
The dealership, under the leadership of General Manager Grant Bibb and ownership of the Koury Group, hosted a heartfelt Christmas giveaway that touched dozens of local families. Over the course of several days from a special Saturday event with Santa Claus through Christmas week more than 150 gifts were distributed to children and families throughout the community.
“It feels good to put a smile on someone’s face,” Bibb said. “We’re a very successful dealership, and a lot of that success comes from this community. Our philosophy is simple: how do we give back to the people we live with, worship with, raise our kids with, and cheer alongside at ball games?”

A No-Strings-Attached Gift of Joy
The main giveaway event featured Santa Claus, the Grinch, family photos, and free gifts, with no requirement to test drive a vehicle or make a purchase. Bibb emphasized that the goal was to reach families especially those who might otherwise struggle to afford Christmas presents.
“Some people in our community don’t have the means for gifts,” Bibb said. “We wanted them to come in, take a picture with Santa, and leave with a gift no catch. Just come and be blessed.”
Approximately 100 gifts were prepared, with 95 distributed that Saturday. The remaining gifts were donated to a local church to bless children during their Sunday program.
“The smiles on those kids’ faces that’s what it’s all about,” Bibb said. “When you see a child open a gift they weren’t expecting, their whole expression changes. That’s a moment you never forget.”

Giving Didn’t Stop There
What surprised many in Del Rio was that the generosity didn’t end with one event. In the days leading up to Christmas, Hyundai of Del Rio continued daily giveaways, including:
•    55-inch televisions
•    VR headsets
•    AirPods
•    iPads
•    Gift cards
•    Barbecue grills
•    Gaming consoles and accessories

“We kept going Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday right up to Christmas,” Bibb said. “And these weren’t small items. We’re talking big TVs, electronics, and things families could truly enjoy together.”
The giveaways were conducted randomly through social media, with participants simply liking, sharing, and commenting. No purchases were required.
“It’s free. Anyone can win,” Bibb said. “There’s no gimmick. We even gave away three TVs in one day because someone didn’t claim theirs we just kept giving.”

Faith, Gratitude, and Community First
Bibb credited the dealership’s giving spirit to faith, gratitude, and the philosophy of owner Nick Koury, who fully supports community investment without hesitation.
“We don’t give because we have to, we  give because we want to,” Bibb said. “God is great all the time. Christmas is about being grateful for what we have and sharing it.”
He added that Hyundai of Del Rio consistently gives back year-round through scholarships, community partnerships, and sponsorships including local museums and nonprofit organizations.
“This year alone, we’ll give another $15,000 to $20,000 in scholarships,” Bibb said. “We invest in the kids, in education, and in the future of this city.”
As the holidays come to a close, Hyundai of Del Rio’s message remains clear: true success is measured not by sales, but by service.
“You can’t be blessed if you don’t bless others,” Bibb said. “Our success comes from giving and we’re going to keep doing it."
