Franchising.com:

Jiffy Lube® announces it has already reached more than 65 percent of its $1 million national fundraising goal for the 2010 Maintenance Partners for Life campaign. Through the generous support of its customers, Jiffy Lube has already raised $658,655 for the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women movement in just three weeks, as of February 22. More than 1,700 Jiffy Lube franchise locations across the U.S. are participating in the campaign that kicked off February 1 and runs through March 14. One hundred percent of the funds donated in participating service centers will be allocated to initiatives in the communities in which they are raised.

“Years ago, I lost my father to a heart attack, so this campaign is especially meaningful to me. It’s so important to educate people about heart disease while also funding research to help prevent it,” said Rob Cooper, district manager for Jiffy Lube International. “If my family would have understood how much of a silent killer heart disease can be, we may have been able to do more to help my father eat healthier, exercise and live longer.”
