3M Donates Signature Event with Chip Foose to Support Military Veterans and Collision School Programs

3M has donated Chip Foose memorabilia, to the Collision Repair Education Foundation (CREF) to raise funds for the Hire Our Heroes program, which supports military veterans and family members of veterans who are studying collision repair in a local high school or technical college

 

Autographed Hoods

Chip Foose has recently autographed Hire Our Heroes graphically themed mini-hoods, which are available for purchase for $250 each. Funds raised from this fundraiser will help CREF provide tool grants to Hire Our Heroes recipients and allow veterans and/or their family members studying collision repair start off their careers with needed tools. The hoods are available on a first-come-first serve basis.

Donate below to receive a hood:



“Inspiring new talent to join and become part of the Collision Industry is imperative and 3M wants to do their part to ensure technicians have the right tools for the job and continue to build a passion for the industry,” Lori Tempelis, 3M Automotive Aftermarket Sales and Marketing Director.

Questions regarding either fundraiser opportunity can be directed to CREF Director of Development Brandon Eckenrode at Brandon.Eckenrode@ed-foundation.org.
