CIF Raises Big Again at 8th Annual Gala Fundraiser
February 25, 2018 – Palm Springs, CA – For the 8th time, the Collision Industry Foundation (CIF) held its annual Gala Fundraiser in Palm Springs, California. Continuing the well-known tradition, the Foundation again hosted a lively cocktail party, complete with delicious Asian Fare hors d’oeuvres and cocktails at the renowned Lulu California Bistro.
117 attendees from the collision industry set a new record the fun event. The gala guests were able to participate in a raffle and silent auction featuring many items. Items were donated by companies and individuals and included high-end electronics, custom art work, a Chip Foose-signed picture, a NASCAR® package as well as vouchers for I-CAR and AMI training classes.
