The Young Care Network Group has donated $7,500 to the Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation as the result of a fundraising effort launched two years ago.
As shared in a recent press release, YANG’s donation in support of AACF came from its year-round #YANGGivesBack t-shirt fundraising campaign. Beginning in 2023, YANG has offered the t-shirts at Auto Care Association in-person events and at select YANG regional meet-up events, with proceeds going to AACF.
“As members of the Young Auto Care Network Group, we’re proud to support the Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation and the vital work they do for families in need,” said Matt Fowler, YANG chair. “This donation is more than a contribution—it’s a reflection of our industry’s heart and our commitment to lifting each other up. Together, we drive change that truly matters.”
“On behalf of AACF, I want to extend our sincere gratitude to YANG for their continued annual support,” said John Kairys, AACF executive director. “The generosity of this vibrant and driven group of young professionals is not only inspiring but essential to the future of our industry. YANG represents the next generation of leadership, innovation and compassion in the aftermarket. Their commitment to giving back reminds us that age is no barrier to impact. We are proud to partner with them in making sure our industry families are never alone in their time of need.”
