AASA’s Annual Technology Conference Supports Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation (AACF)

Industry’s Top Technology Conference Supports Aftermarket Individuals in Need for Third Year
Date: October 23, 2019

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. – The Automotive Aftermarket Suppliers Association (AASA) wrapped up the recent AASA Technology Conference with a fun contest to raise funds in support of the Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation (AACF).

Terence O’Reilly and Jeffrey Marshall of Pricedex Software, the conference’s Premier Sponsor, once again led closing banquet attendees in the “Toonie Game.” O’Reilly and Marshall each flipped Canadian two-dollar pieces, or “Toonies,” as they are informally referenced in Canada.

Attendees participated by making donations to the AACF and guessing how the coins would land. A series of fun and suspenseful elimination rounds resulted in a single remaining individual, who won a hoverboard valued at over $500, courtesy of Pricedex.

“The AASA Technology Conference is more than just an extremely valuable industry event for the aftermarket,” said Terry O’Reilly, president and chief executive officer of Pricedex and AACF corporate secretary. “This is an opportunity for industry members to come together in support of the important work the AACF does for families across the country.”

Between attendees’ contributions and AASA's donation-matching pledge, a total of $3,000 was raised to support the vital efforts and initiatives of the AACF.

About the AACF
The AACF has been helping aftermarket families turn tragedy into triumph since 1959. Like the industry, AACF is driven by passion and devoted to family. It’s tough to ask for help, but when someone in the aftermarket family faces profound circumstances, AACF is there when it seems like there’s nowhere else to turn. As a nonprofit, this is accomplished through the support of generous donors, awareness partners and dedicated volunteers. To learn more, contact AACF at www.AftermarketCharity.org.
