The National Auto Body Council (NABC) announced the winners of the sold-out NABC Palm Springs Changing and Saving Lives Golf Fundraiser Presented by Hertz held Jan.16, 2024 at the Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort in Palm Springs, Calif.
More than 150 players, sponsors and industry members gathered for the tournament to kick off 2024 for the collision repair industry. NABC Day featured a NABC Recycled Rides presentation to four Palm Springs families — including three veterans and a single mother — the golf fundraiser and NABC Day member reception.

“Congratulations to our winners and thank you to all of our players and sponsors for supporting today’s event,” said Scott Sampley, chairman of the NABC. “The real winners are those who we support through our programs — the families in need, military members, veterans and first responders. We’re honored to be able to give back to them and their communities through the collective work of the collision industry.”
