For the second consecutive year, the Driven Brands Collision Group, consisting of Abra, CARSTAR and Fix Auto USA, proudly sponsored families through the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Holiday Family Sponsor Program. This year, the team supported seven families, made up of more than 20 adults and children, providing gifts for everyone in need.
The team thoroughly enjoyed the process of shopping for gifts and wrapping them for each family member. Many team members have personal connections to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, which is also the charity of choice for the three brands under the Driven Brands umbrella.
“Being a part of this initiative is incredibly meaningful for all of us at Driven Brands,” said Damien Reyna, U.S. COO, Driven Brands Collision. “We are proud to continue our support for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and we are grateful to be able to make a positive impact on these families during the holiday season. This partnership allows us to give back to the community in a way that truly matters, and it’s an honor to contribute to the well-being of these families.”
Several of the team members are also involved with the foundation's STANDOUT program, a young professionals initiative through the North Carolina Chapter. Andrew Neldeberg, senior marketing manager, and Molly Carter, marketing coordinator, both participated in this year's class, while Graeme Eber, senior marketing manager, was part of last year's class and was honored as the STANDOUT of the Year.
“It is inspiring to see companies like Driven Brands actively supporting our mission,” said Rachel Straton of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. “Their generosity and commitment to our cause help make a tangible difference for families living with cystic fibrosis. We are incredibly grateful for their ongoing partnership and for their dedication to making the holidays brighter for those who need it most.”
The Driven Brands Collision Group extends its heartfelt thanks to Straton and looks forward to their partnership serving even more families in the future.
