Arnold Motor Supply, in collaboration with several channel partners in the automotive aftermarket industry, announced the successful raising of $75,000 for Tori’s Angels Foundation.
This fundraising achievement was celebrated during the company’s annual golf and leisure event held during early September, with all proceeds donated to Tori’s Angels, a nonprofit organization dedicated to assisting children with life-threatening medical challenges, Arnold Motor Supply said.
“Tori’s Angels makes a profound difference in the lives of children and families in Iowa. With the support of our valued channel partners, we’re thrilled to have made a meaningful difference for approximately 20 more families in need,” said Eric Johnson, president and managing partner at Arnold Motor Supply.
Tori’s Angels covers all medical and travel expenses not covered by insurance, providing support from acceptance into the program until a child’s 19th birthday. Tori’s Angels CEO, Kirby Klinge, encourages Iowa families to reach out to the foundation for more information, as it is always looking for more children to help, according to Arnold Motor Supply.
During the event, Arnold Motor Supply also took the opportunity to recognize outstanding contributions from key channel partners.
• PPG Industries was recognized as Vendor of the Year for their exceptional partnership and commitment through training, shop certification programs, and inventory optimization.
• East Penn’s Mark Hoffman, Kevin Irlocker, and Ben Clark were awarded as Reps of the Year for their customer loyalty programs and field support.
