Day Ceremony and
KEYS TO PROGRESS 2015 On June 12, 2013, Progressive Insurance hosted the first Keys to Progress® event, a singular day that changed the lives of 59 veterans and their families across the country. On November 11, 2015, we’re holding our 3rd annual Keys to Progress event, with the goal of giving away 134 vehicles to needy veterans and their families. During this one-day event held at Progressive Service Centers across the U.S., Progressive, together with network auto-body shops, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, national salvage companies, the National Auto Body Council (NABC) and several military organizations, Progressive presents the refurbished vehicles to the recipients during a special giveaway ceremony. .
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 organizations to find deserving veterans in need of a vehicle and gather their stories. The events have been a great success, attracting the attention of media and communities in nearly 40 markets across the country. Each year, we also produce a YouTube video with highlights from various locations on the day of the event. Now, it’s time to work with our partners to do this year’s Keys to Progress event. We look forward to creating even more memories and opportunities for deserving veterans and their families this year. We want to provide two veterans per Progressive Service Center location with a refurbished vehicle. Please click here to find a Progressive Service Center location near you. We plan to hold the events on November 11, Veterans Day, between 11:30 am and 1:30 pm at most locations, so please mark this date and time on calendars now so you can participate with us! Progressive thanks you for being a partner with us in this important effort.
