Fundraiser Supports Female Collision Repair Students

The Collision Repair Education Foundation push comes during Women's History Month.

March 23, 2021—The Collision Repair Education Foundation, to mark Women's History Month, is fundraising to support female collision repair students.

A portion of the proceeds from sales of Rachael Alfonso's book, What Cars Say, will be donated to a fund for future female technicians, according to a press release.

The book features the sounds of 21 recorded vehicles sounds. To support female techs, purchase it here

“Growing up, and even now, cars are a huge part of my life," Alfonso, the author and an automotive professional, says in the release. "They bring a smile to my face, whether I am sitting in the driver’s seat—or if I’m underneath the hood, getting my hands dirty. I created this book because I believe a love for cars is inside all of us, and that love should be encouraged.”
