## Month of giving launch

TROY, Mich., Nov. 13, 2025 // PRNewswire // -- Ziebart, the global leader in vehicle appearance and protection services, is excited to announce the launch of its third annual **Month of Giving**, a nationwide fundraising initiative benefiting Mission 22. The nonprofit organization provides critical support to veterans and military families battling PTSD, traumatic brain injuries, and other service-related mental health challenges.

Ziebart's year-round fundraising for Mission 22 has already surpassed $6,000, demonstrating the tremendous impact and generosity of the brand's franchise system. Those efforts will culminate in December for the brand's third-annual Month of Giving initiative, with a goal of raising an additional $5,000 throughout the month.

"Supporting our nation's veterans is part of who we are," said Thomas A. Wolfe, President & Chief Executive Officer of Ziebart. "Month of Giving brings our franchise network, employees, and customers together around an important mission — ensuring veterans and their families receive the support they deserve."

The decision to put system-wide fundraising efforts toward Mission 22 was originally inspired by Ziebart franchise owner Nick Lambie. As a veteran of the U.S. Air Force, Lambie's personal service story reflects the courage, strength, and resilience found throughout the veteran community.

## Supporting veterans

Ziebart's annual Month of Giving initiative continues the brand's longstanding commitment to honoring and uplifting the military community. In fact, with veterans representing more than 10% of its franchise system, Franchise Business Review recently recognized Ziebart as a Top Franchise for Veterans. Underscoring that commitment, Ziebart waives the full franchise fee – valued at $45,000 – for qualifying U.S. veterans, helping empower entrepreneurial opportunities after service.

Beginning December 1, customers visiting participating Ziebart locations can contribute directly to Mission 22 through in-store donation opportunities or online at www.ziebart.com/monthofgiving. To further amplify donations, Ziebart will match contributions up to $5000.
