While the COVID-19 pandemic has been sweeping across the nation, many people and businesses have been helping to support the fearless men and women on the frontline, who are helping those that are sick or in need of care. Whether it is collecting and donating all sorts of PPE equipment and shipping them to local hospitals and assisted living homes, or crafting homemade face masks and protective face shields and dropping them off at nearby medical facilities, it seems like many are doing their part to pitch in and help.
As auto repair has been deemed “essential business” during the COVID-19 outbreak, several auto repair shops have stepped in to give back to their communities as a sign of gratitude to these courageous men and women.
