The final day of our National Conference ended with two car donations from the National Auto Body Council! The cars were donated to families that were served by a Family Promise site just outside of Indianapolis. We would like to send a big THANK YOU to the National Auto Body Council for their generous donation. The gift of transportation changes the trajectory of a family's life. 🚗 The NABC also set up an exhibitor table to teach Conference-goers about their work. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, Extended Stay America, and Bloomerang also had tables set up. We're so grateful they made the trip to Indianapolis to join us at Conference! ⭐️
