In honor of Veterans Day, Phillips Industries recently announced its “Green Gives Back” Campaign, donating a portion of the proceeds from certain Phillips products to the Wyakin Foundation, which supports veterans transitioning back into civilian life.
“The Wyakin slogan, ‘They gave. We’re giving back.’ is how Phillips views our commitment to this program to support those who have served selflessly and with much sacrifice to ensure our safety and freedoms,” said Rob Myers, president of Phillip Aftermarket business unit. “Our goal from our ‘Green Gives Back’ campaign is to provide valuable funds to The Wyakin Foundation so they can continue their life-changing work.”
Limited-edition “green” Phillips products are now available for purchase, including premium extra heavy-duty Qwik-Change Tracker Spring Kit with Qwik-Clamp that were designed with a green “Supporting Vets” sleeve. Every “green” product also comes with a limited-edition sticker for an additional show of patronage to the cause.
“Our longtime partnership with Phillips Industries speaks volumes about their company culture and their commitment to impacting our world in a positive way,” said Brent Taylor, president and CEO of the Wyakin Foundation. “The Wyakin program creates lasting, meaningful change in the lives of our veterans and those whose lives they touch. It’s no exaggeration to say that together, Wyakin and Phillips are changing the world one veteran at a time.”
