April 14, 2016—Service King Collision Repair Centers announced Wednesday that the organization has successfully recruited and hired more than 100 military veterans and family members in less than 12 months through its Mission 2 Hire campaign.

The initiative officially launched in May 2015 with the goal of recruiting 500 military veterans and spouses in five years. Service King said with today’s milestone, the organization is on pace to surpass its original pledge. 

“The Service King family is united in our effort to create and provide career opportunities for our heroes who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces,” Chris Abraham, Service King chief executive officer, said. “Today is a very proud moment for our Mission 2 Hire initiative. Military veterans and their family members, by nature, possess the very skillsets and core values we aim to harvest at Service King. We’re proud to open our doors and actively promote career opportunities to our heroes as the Service King Family of Repair Centers continues to grow across the U.S.”
