Glass Doctor’s 7th Annual Toys for Tots Rock Chip Event: Fix Your Windshield, (for Free), Fill a Kid’s Heart!
Contributed by Kevin Tennant, Glass Doctors of Fairbanks & Wasilla
Driving in Alaska almost guarantees you’re going to catch a rock in your windshield at some point. Those pesky rock chips are practically part of the scenery! At Glass Doctor, we're repairing about 100 of them every single week—rain, shine, or snow. Seven years ago, we hatched a brilliant plan to turn a negative into a positive: Swap a new, unwrapped toy for a free rock chip repair. It's our fun way to give back, turning everyday windshield woes into holiday magic for local kids through Toys for Tots!
Let's face it—nearly every Alaskan vehicle sports a chip or two. That's why this event is such a win-win: You get a top-notch fix from pros, and we collect a truckload, (hopefully) of toys for children in need who might otherwise miss out on Christmas cheer.
Kicking off this November 1st and running all month long, our 7th annual event is bigger and better than ever! Swing by either of our locations in Wasilla or North Pole—we're aiming to spread the word to all 250,000+ generous folks in the Mat-Su and Fairbanks areas. Got a chip? No appointment needed. Bring a new, unwrapped toy, and let's make some smiles! Spot this in your feed? Please share it far and wide! Follow us on Facebook and Instagram to catch our posts, then pass them along to friends. Together, we can make this the jolliest haul yet. Thanks a million—from us, and especially from the kids!
