A Minneapolis veteran, Robert Hanson, has been without a car for over two years due to severe health issues. His severe asthma and fibromyalgia made public transportation extremely difficult. However, thanks to the Recycled Rides for Schools program at the National Auto Body Council, Hanson received a beautifully refurbished 2020 Hyundai Elantra. The car was donated by Allstate and restored by students at the Dunwoody College of Engineering's Automotive Collision and Refinishing school. The students were able to see the impact of their work firsthand when Hanson received the car. He expressed his gratitude, stating that the car is a 'big-time game changer' for him, allowing him to shop at more reasonable places and enjoy life again. The refurbished car has improved Hanson's quality of life and enabled him to regain independence. The Recycled Rides program is a testament to the kindness and generosity of individuals and organizations working together to make a positive impact in their community.
