Auto Repair Shop Helping to End Hunger for Southwest Florida

Auto Repair Shop Helping to End Hunger for Southwest Florida Hurricane Ian came ripping through Southwest Florida on September 27th, 2022. It caused so much devastation to our side of the coast, that the need for food, and basic necessities was very much felt throughout the communities. A local newspaper article recently wrote that the local Food Banks are in much need for the holidays coming up. The participating agencies are Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Senior Friendship Center, and the South County Food Pantry. We have partnered with our friends and neighbors at the South County Food Pantry to be a drop off location for canned goods and non perishable items.  We are asking all of our friends, neighbors, clients and family to bring in any donations they might be able to give and in return we are going to enter those into a drawing for a FREE Turkey on November 18th. (We want to make sure you have more than enough notice before ... read more

What is the Brakes for Breasts Program?     For the month of October, until the 31st, we are offering our Brakes for Breasts promotion. That means free Brake Pad or Shoes all October long. We donate 10% of the proceeds will benefit the Cleveland Clinic Breast Cancer Vaccine Fund. This is not only to our shop but shops across the country are participating in this to raise over $100,000 in proceeds! We want to defeat our goal from last year which was $680.00. This all happens around Breast Cancer Awareness Month which is also in October.  This is a wonderful cause we are happy to support but some may be completely clueless when it comes to anything Brakes related, other than that they make the car stop. Let's be honest, when they tell me I need new Brakes, I am sent a detailed inspection report, and shown all the pictures to see that diagnosi ... read more
