The I-CAR Education Foundation selected 21 collision schools to receive windshield replacement tool kits, each valued at $250, which were donated to the foundation from UltraWiz.
The original UltraWiz tool grant was scheduled to award the kits to 15 collision schools. However, upon hearing that 21 deserving schools had applied for the grant, UltraWiz increased their donation to accommodate all 21 schools. Through UltraWiz’s donation, these schools will have additional tools and equipment to assist in teaching their students about glass repair.
