CARSTAR All Line Donates Car to Needy Family

Donation of 2008 Honda Odyssey restored to like-new condition is the fourth for Bolingbrook, Ill., auto body shop.

CARSTAR All Line Auto Body, in Bolingbrook, Ill., has donated a 2008 Honda Odyssey to a deserving family as part of the National Auto Body Council’s (NABC) Recycled Rides program. The donation took place at the Bolingbrook facility on Feb. 25th.

Bolingbrook Deputy Mayor Leroy Brown was on hand to present the keys to the family, and U.S. 99.5’s Ramblin’ Ray was also there for the presentation.

“This is our fourth Recycled Ride,” said Teresa Kostick, owner of CARSTAR All Line. “Every time we donate a vehicle, it’s all about community involvement. We have several Bolingbrook businesses who have been supportive by donating things like gas cards, hotel stays and more to the recipient.”

The Honda Odyssey was donated by State Farm and was a former fleet vehicle for the company. CARSTAR All Line refurbished the vehicle to like-new condition. Enterprise and the Community Service Council were also sponsors of the event.
