Gage added his thoughts, "One of the great things about this industry is that it's like an extended family, and we genuinely care about the people in it and want to help those when they need it most.  The AACF provides a way to focus this good will and generosity to get resources to those when they have nowhere else to turn. They're truly an inspiring group, and I was honored to help raise the awareness of the fantastic work they do.”

Joel Ayres, AACF Executive Director, said "The fact that these busy and popular celebrities would take the time to record these public service ads in their studios, shows the character of each man and the generous hearts that can be found in our industry."

The videos will be used at AACF events and presentations, shown during industry events like AAPEX/SEMA, and made available for public consumption via the Foundation website at www.aacfi.org.

Since 1959, the AACF has assisted individuals and families of the automotive aftermarket. These individuals have fallen on hard times due to death, catastrophic illness or accident and have exhausted all other available resources in maintaining a reasonable existence. The AACF is the only charity that focuses exclusively on persons and their families employed in the automotive aftermarket industry. To make a donation or to simply learn more about the Foundation and their cause, please contact them directly by going to their website at www.aacfi.org, or by contacting Executive Director Joel Ayers at 916-628-0271.
