\"Chevy<\/a> State Farm Insurance Company is once again donating a repairable vehicle to Dunwoody College\u2019s Collision Repair & Refinishing Program<\/a>. The company has donated five vehicles over the past five years. This year\u2019s vehicle is a 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier LS and will be worked on by our Collision students over the next eight months.<\/p>\n

The donated vehicles provide hard to find structural repair training and advanced vehicle systems training for our students. After Collision students and faculty repair them, the vehicles are sold. State Farm stipulates that any net profit on the vehicles they donate be used for equipment for the Collision Program. For example, profits from recent donations helped the Program purchase a squeeze type resistance spot welder last year.<\/p>\n

A representative from State Farm said: \u201cThese donations are a great example of how State Farm is working with the Auto Body repair program at Dunwoody. This collaboration supports improvement in the collision repair process \u2014 something that benefits our customers, repairers and State Farm. It also makes a positive impact on the environment. Donating vehicles helps reduce the amount of waste added to our nation\u2019s landfills.<\/p>\n

State Farm is committed to meeting the needs of our communities, and this program is a great opportunity to meet a need and make a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dunwoody\u2019s connection with State Farm began with alumnus Bob Roiger, an estimatics trainer for the company. Roiger graduated in 1978 from the Collision Repair and Refinishing program. State Farm also helps with the Skills USA<\/a> contest for Collision Repair.<\/p>\n

The Collision Program will put the profit from the sale of the repaired and refinished Cavalier towards a computerized measuring system and is looking to partner with another repairable vehicle donation source per year to help reach that goal sooner.<\/p>\n
