State Farm has produced a riveting and poignant documentary on the F5 tornado disaster that devastated Joplin, Mo., and Franklin Technology Center last May.
The documentary is part of State Farm’s “Hi-Tech Toolbox,” a webcast/website dedicated to providing the collision repair industry with the latest information in collision repair and refinishing technology and vehicle design. It, along with a story written by Bob Medved, State Farm corporate claim training instructor, was recently featured on “Dirty Jobs” host Mike Rowe’s website.
Both State Farm and the Collision Repair Education Foundation are currently working to secure donations to help Franklin Technical Center rebuild.
Industry professionals interested in joining the Collision Repair
Education Foundation’s efforts to support Franklin Technology Center’s rebuild through a
monetary and/or in-kind product donation should contact Associate
Director of Development Brandon Eckenrode at [email protected] or (847) 463-5244.
