MOPAR MASTERS GUILD GROUP PLEDGES $2.5 MILLION IN DONATED PARTS TO COLLISION SCHOOL PROGRAMS IN 2016 THROUGH THE COLLISION REPAIR EDUCATION FOUNDATION

HOFFMAN ESTATES, IL – January 12, 2016 – In recognition of the Collision Repair Education Foundation’s 25th anniversary in 2016, the MOPAR Masters Guild group has pledged to provide $2.5 million in donated scrap parts from its dealership members to local high school and college collision school programs across the country. The MOPAR Masters Guild and the Education Foundation will work towards having at least 50 dealerships each donating at least $50,000 in scrap parts such as bumper covers, fenders, doors, and other items which are in high demand from school instructors for their students to practice on and prepare for entry-level employment.

Collision Repair Education Foundation Director of Development Brandon Eckenrode noted, “Scrap parts are regularly the number one needed and requested item by high school and college collision school programs across the country and the Education Foundation welcomes the opportunity to collaborate with the MOPAR Masters Guild group and their members for this incredible donation pledge. As the Education Foundation will be celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2016, our efforts of supporting collision school programs with donations and presenting students with collision career opportunities will be taken to another level through commitments such as this. We look forward to working together with the MOPAR Masters Guild over the course of 2016 and meeting this goal.”
