Hoffman Estates, IL– June 1, 2012 – Mac Tools has supported secondary and post-secondary collision students by providing a student tool grant scholarship through the Collision Repair Education Foundation. Four students were selected from 250 applications and each wining student will be able to select $2,500 (retail) in products from Mac Tools. These tool grants were made available through the Collision Repair Education Foundation’s spring 2012 student scholarship and tool grant opportunities, which included over $125,000 in support through industry supporters.
The student winners of the 2012 spring Mac Tools grant include:
Austin Abernathy (Sikeston Career and Technology Center – Sikeston, MO)
John Lopez (Lincoln Technical Institute – Melrose Park, IL)
Ruslan Lysak (Green River Community College – Auburn, WA)

Collision Repair Education Foundation Associate Director of Development Brandon Eckenrode noted, “Tools can be a significant expense and through the generosity of Mac Tools, these four collision students are now better equipped to properly repair collision damaged vehicles. Thank you to Mac Tools for their continued support and joining in our efforts to fuel the future of the collision industry.”
