In a fight
against veteran unemployment, Central Collision Center has become a supporting
member of Hire Our Heroes, a campaign
designed to help veterans and their families find meaningful employment.
Central
Collision is participating in this nationwide campaign through 3M Collision
Repair Solutions’ Automotive Aftermarket Division, who will donate funds to the
Collision Repair Education Foundation and Operation Comfort based on sales of
popular 3M products. Central Collision’s purchase of these products will help
veterans pursue careers in the collision repair industry.
Funds donated to
the Collision Repair Education Foundation will provide grants and scholarships
to help cover tuition, classroom materials, tools and equipment for returning
veterans. Donations to Operation Comfort will support rehabilitation for
wounded veterans through a unique automotive skill-based rehabilitation
program.
“I know
first-hand how hard it is to return from service and start a career,” said Mike
Caruso, owner of Central Collision and U.S. Military veteran. “I’m grateful 3M
has created this opportunity for our industry to help.”
