Company announces contributions to local school

RICHMOND, Virginia - (June 1, 2017) - CarMax, Inc . (NYSE: KMX), the nation's largest retailer of used cars , today celebrated the grand opening of its 17 store in Florida, located at 6450 Pensacola Boulevard in Pensacola. The Pensacola CarMax has the capacity to stock approximately 140 used vehicles of nearly every make and model. CarMax customers can also request transfers to Pensacola of almost any vehicle from other CarMax locations throughout the country.

In celebration of the Pensacola store opening, CarMax, Inc. and The CarMax Foundation awarded $8,000 in donations and grants to Blue Angels Elementary School. The school is closely located to Naval Air Station Pensacola and approximately 31 percent of students are from military families. The contributions will help fund after-school tutoring, enrichment programs and a special multi-sensory room.

'CarMax associates are passionate about providing support to our military service members, veterans and their families,' said Tom McDonough, location general manager of the CarMax in Pensacola. 'We are looking forward to more opportunities to volunteer and give back locally and are pleased to bring the easy, no-haggle CarMax experience to Pensacola.'

The CarMax Foundation also donated a Rigamajig to Blue Angels Elementary School through its partnership with KaBOOM! focused on making play more accessible to children of veterans and military families. Rigamajigs are building kits that engage kids in creative play that is physically challenging and collaborative. The CarMax Foundation has granted more than $36 million on behalf of associates across the country since 2003.
