For the second year in a row, the Georgia Collision Repair Industry (GCIA) used funds it raised from its annual golf tournament to make a $2,000 donation to Atlanta-area Maxwell High School of Technology.  Maxwell offers Auto Collision I and II as well as almost 20 other career paths for young people seeking an education in a trade.

“We donated this money to the school to help train the technicians of the future,” said Howard Batchelor, executive director of GCIA. “With limited budgets, auto body schools need outside assistance to help purchase tools, equipment and supplies. The vehicles are becoming more advanced, and we want to make sure the future generation knows how to fix them correctly.”
