During the final stop of the 86th Annual Auto Value Product Expo Tour, Automotive Parts Headquarters Inc. (APH), in partnership with almost 50 manufacturers’ representatives, hosted its sixth annual chili cook-off. Donations were matched by both APH and the Bartlett family, pushing this year’s grand total to $112,650.
A check was presented in a ceremony last week to Steve Howard, Executive Director of WACOSA, a nonprofit day program for adults with disabilities in central Minnesota. WACOSA provides meaningful work for more than 600 people and connects that workforce to local businesses.
“I’m amazed by the support we’ve received,” said Corey Bartlett, president and CEO of APH. “Surpassing this year’s goal of $100,000 speaks volumes about the generosity of our industry. Every dollar raised will go a long way towards advancing WACOSA’s mission. Simply put, we couldn’t be more proud of our supplier partners.”
