The CIF - COLLISION INDUSTRY FOUNDATION is here to help. Hurricane Helene has made landfall as a Category 4 storm. Many people had to evacuate their homes. As deadly flash flooding and a 15 to 20-foot storm surge make their way inland, even more people in an even larger area will be affected. What can you do? Help us find collision repair individuals who require assistance and send them our way. https://lnkd.in/g-uA994q...
