AMERICAN FAMILY INSURANCE SPONSORS $15,000 IN COLLISION SCHOOL GRANTS THROUGH THE COLLISION REPAIR EDUCATION FOUNDATION

HOFFMAN ESTATES, IL – December, 16, 2014 – American Family Insurance has awarded $15,000 in grants to four collision school programs through the Collision Repair Education Foundation. The schools applied for the Education Foundation’s 2014 Ultimate Collision Education Makeover school grant and these funds will help fulfill the schools collision program’s wish list of needed tools, equipment, and supplies. The American Family Insurance school grant recipients include:
Kaskaskia College (Centralia, IL)
Lake Washington Institute of Technology (Kirkland, WA)
Northland Community & Technical College (Thief River Falls, MN)
Southwest Wisconsin Technical College (Fennimore, WI)

American Family Insurance Auto Policies & Procedures Administrator Dan Endres noted, “American Family Insurance is proud to partner with the Collision Repair Education Foundation in their goal of helping schools provide an outstanding technical education. We hope our donation will ensure these schools have the appropriate resources to help these students pursue their dreams.”

Collision Repair Education Foundation Director of Development Brandon Eckenrode noted, “I would like to thank American Family Insurance for their continued support of assisting collision school programs who need to graduate productive and efficient collision students however face restrictive program budgets. In some instances, these grants double a schools collision budget and allow the instructor to provide a higher quality technical education to their students.”
