2013 Keys to Progress - Progressive Insurance

Keys to Progress Vehicle Giveaway Event

On June 12, 2013, Progressive Insurance hosted the first Keys to Progress® vehicle giveaway event, a singular day that changed the lives of 59 veterans and their families across the country. They have collectively donated more than 400 vehicles to deserving Veterans and Veteran organizations through this annual event. On November 9, 2017, they’re holding the 5th annual Keys to Progress event, with the goal of giving away another 100+ vehicles to veterans and their families.

During this one-day event held at Progressive Service Centers across the United States, Progressive–together with network auto-body shops, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, national salvage companies, the National Auto Body Council (NABC) and several military and charity organizations–presents the refurbished vehicles to the recipients during a special giveaway ceremony held during the week of Veterans Day.

Progressive representatives partner with salvage companies and NABC member auto-body shops to identify and repair vehicles for this cause. We also work with military and charity organizations to find deserving veterans in need of a vehicle and gather their stories. Vehicles are donated to recipients through 1-800-Charity-Cars.

This year, Progressive will have vehicle giveaway events in the following metro locations: New York City, Colorado Springs, CO; Des Moines, IA; Louisville, KY; Lubbock, TX; FT Meyers, FL; Fresno, CA.
