Pet Shelter&#8217;s Makin&#8217; Strides for Strays 5K in Aurora, and an official partnership with The Branch Moms, a local organization dedicated to supporting mothers and families in the Naperville area.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">For co-owner Laura Weber, these investments reflect something she has believed since the day she and Matt Weber opened Clark&#8217;s doors in 2001. Doing business in a community means giving back to it. As a mom herself, Laura&#8217;s commitment to local families goes well beyond the service bay.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">This month, Clark&#8217;s Car Care is backing that belief with action, in two very visible ways.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Clark's Car Care\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalnewslines.com\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ac4536efd12037386c18e52ebd247590.jpg\" alt=\"Clark's Car Care\" width=\"425\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Going for Gold at the Makin&#8217; Strides for Strays 5K<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Clark&#8217;s Car Care is proud to serve as a Gold Sponsor of the A.D.O.P.T. Pet Shelter&#8217;s Makin&#8217; Strides for Strays 5K, held at Phillips Park in Aurora. As one of the event&#8217;s top-tier sponsors, the shop will have an on-site booth stocked with giveaways for runners, walkers, and four-legged participants alike.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The connection to A.D.O.P.T. isn&#8217;t a new one:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"caps\">The animal rescue sits right across the street from Clark&#8217;s Naperville facility<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The shop has long supported the shelter&#8217;s mission to find homes for animals in the area<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Jesse, the shop&#8217;s beloved resident mascot, has made the bond between Clark&#8217;s and the animals next door feel like something more than a sponsorship<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">It&#8217;s a shared neighborhood, and a shared set of values.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Becoming an Official Branch Partner<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Clark&#8217;s Car Care is now an official partner of The Branch Moms, a local community organization supporting mothers and families in the Naperville area.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">For a shop that&#8217;s female-owned, family-operated, and built on the belief that every customer deserves to be treated like a neighbor, this partnership makes complete sense. Laura Weber isn&#8217;t just the co-owner of a busy auto repair shop. She&#8217;s a Naperville mom who understands exactly what it means to juggle family, schedules, and a vehicle that needs attention.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">That lived experience shapes how Clark&#8217;s Car Care operates. The shop is built around education and transparency, with a mission to educate, empower, and inform customers so they can make confident decisions about their vehicles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">For members of The Branch Moms, Clark&#8217;s Car Care offers the kind of auto repair experience that busy families actually need: clear explanations, honest recommendations, and a team that stands behind every single job.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>A Naperville Shop With Deep Local Roots<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Clark&#8217;s Car Care has been part of the Naperville community since November 2001, when Matt and Laura Weber opened their doors in a small warehouse space with $20,000 and a whole lot of belief in doing things the right way. More than two decades later, the shop has grown to 8 service bays and a full team, and the original mission hasn&#8217;t changed: treat every car like your own family drives it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">That philosophy carries over into everything Clark&#8217;s does outside the shop walls. In addition to supporting A.D.O.P.T. and The Branch Moms, Clark&#8217;s has long been involved with:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li>\n<p>Naperville Little League<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Local food pantries<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Care for Cars, a church initiative that helps drivers in need cover repair costs<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The shop serves drivers throughout Naperville, West Aurora, Woodridge, Warrenville, and Eola. They&#8217;re a NAPA AutoCare Center, meaning every qualifying repair is backed by a 3-year\/36,000-mile nationwide warranty, and they&#8217;ve earned recognition as a Carfax Top-Rated Service Center.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>About Clark&#8217;s Car Care<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Clark&#8217;s Car Care is a family-owned and female-owned auto repair shop in Naperville, IL.
