Repair It Forward
Repair It Forward
Charitable Program in West Springfield MA giving away $3,000 in Auto Repair to families in need.
Repair it Forward is a program developed by The Stephenson Family that is tailored to help local families that have fallen on hard times. We all need our vehicles on a daily basis to get to work, pick up our children, make it to doctor’s appointments, and to get to the grocery store.
Individuals without a working car will find that asking for rides or taking public transportation can sometimes be a bit of a headache and an inconvenience for all parties involved.
​
The Repair it Forward program was developed in 2014 to help one lucky family per year that has a vehicle that is unsafe, doesn’t run, won’t pass state inspection, or they just don’t have the money to fix the car. This family would receive up to $3,000 in vehicle repairs courtesy of Precision Auto Repair.
​
In 2017, Repair It Forward was changed slightly so that we could help more than just one family. The major change was that we decided to give $1500 to 2 separate families instead of just one. We found that this had a much more profound impact on the community.
All parts for this program are donated by Napa Auto Parts of Westfield MA
