# Splash into Summer with Spectacular Swag, Charitable Giving and More

**TL;DR:** CARSTAR is running a summer promotion where customers can win prizes and the company will donate up to $10,000 to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The promotion is part of a larger fundraising initiative called Shine Season, which aims to raise funds for cystic fibrosis research, advocacy, and care.

## Story

During the month of June, customers will have a chance to win a special summer prize. To enter, customers will share how they get involved in their community, their first and last name, email, and address. Five lucky winners will receive a prize package of summer essentials that includes a Yeti cooler, four branded koozies, a branded water bottle, and a branded towel.

Additionally, each entry will be matched with a $1 contribution from CARSTAR Corporate to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Financial matching will max out 10,000 entries or $10,000 to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. If the maximum numbers of entries are not reached, CARSTAR Corporate will still fulfill the $10,000 donation.

Entries will be monitored from Monday, June 5 through Friday, June 30, 2023, 11:59 p.m. EST. Only entrants from this eligibility period will be entered to win and winners will be contacted through their email address used to enter.

The Summer Splash promotion runs in tandem with Shine Season, a three-month-long fundraising initiative that encourages franchise partners and corporate staff to get involved with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation by raising funds for cystic fibrosis research, advocacy, and care.

“It brings me great pride watching our owners and their customers support causes that are near and dear to themselves and their respective communities,” said Damien Reyna, COO of U.S. collision, Driven Brands. “I look forward to witnessing the selfless dedication of our network during Summer Splash, Shine Season, and future fundraising events to come.”

Summer is bringing the heat, but CARSTAR is bringing the shine. With over $4 million raised to date for cystic fibrosis research, advocacy, and care, CARSTAR is optimistic about making a continued positive impact this summer season.
