Quick Quack Car Wash Veterans Day Event
We are busting with pride over our new partnership with sponsor Quick Quack Car Wash who generously came through for our troops with a Silver Level sponsorship to help us cover shipping costs for hundreds of care packages.
Additionally, Quick Quack supplied dozens of dapper-dressed volunteers to Troopathon headquarters to pitch in and pack a mountain of troop care packages just in time for Veterans Day as our way to honor those who have served and to help those troops who are still on the front lines today!
These enthusiastic volunteers certainly exemplified Quick Quack’s charitable mission statement “To Change Lives for the Better!” With mascot Quackals cheering on the team quacking and dancing who couldn’t help but smile?
Quick Quack Car Wash is a major car wash chain with deep community ties specializing in exterior only express car washes.
We’re proud to share our community roots with Quick Quack, established in 2004 in our hometown of Sacramento. Today, Quick Quack Car Wash boasts over 250 Quick Quack locations offering excellent service across Arizona, California, Colorado, Texas, and Utah.
Thank You to the Quick Quack team, you made celebrating Veterans Day so incredible and helping us say “Thank You for Your Service!”
Welcome to Our House, Wounded Warrior Project
Our friends at Wounded Warrior Project joined us on November 20 to help distribute Thanksgiving turkeys for deserving military families and veterans in need. WWP also pitched in at our warehouse for an epic packing party. Thanks to our enthusiastic WWP volunteers, hundreds of holiday care packages were assembled, sealed, and prepped for shipping.
No doubt our Wounded Warrior brothers and sisters know first-hand what service and sacrifice mean. This beneficial partnership offers opportunities for WWP members as they strive to heal from wounds seen and unseen.
By supporting their fellow troops serving today, a strong bridge brings healing, a sense of pride, and the knowledge one can still contribute. We are proud to facilitate this formidable support program and stand arm-in-arm with our brave WWP warriors.
Our veterans often face difficulty once returning from deployment. A multitude of our veterans face challenges we simply cannot understand. Research shows volunteer opportunities for our veterans affords them connection and a sense of value. Thank you, veterans, for pitching in to support our current generation of warriors.
