Several of Caliber’s insurance partners provided the donated vehicles, including Progressive, State Farm and Esurance.

The following military veterans received the Recycled Rides vehicles:

– Thomas Griner, U.S. Marine veteran    
– Melanie Morales, U.S. Navy veteran
– Henry Johnson, U.S. Army veteran
– Stephen Fletcher, U.S. Army veteran

“Our military service men and women give and sacrifice each and every day on our behalf, and we at Caliber never take that for granted,” Grimshaw said. “We are proud of our many associates who share these same values and who have donated countless personal hours to refurbish and repair vehicles that will help these veterans restore the rhythm of their lives.”

Caliber has donated 11 Recycled Rides vehicles this year overall.
