WHO:
Jiffy Lube Franchisees and their customers, plus the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA)
WHAT:
Thousands of visits to Jiffy Lube service centers across the country this August are helping kids and adults with muscular dystrophy, ALS and related life-threatening diseases live longer and grow stronger. The campaign, now in its sixth year, is on track to surpass its goal of exceeding last year’s total of over $500,000, this year thanks to participating Jiffy Lube franchisees and their loyal customers.
With a donation of $3 or more, customers receive a MUSCLE UP! savings book containing more than $100 in savings from Jiffy Lube and other national retailers.
WHERE:
Jiffy Lubes across the country, including those in your area.
WHEN:
Now through August 31, 2017
WHY:
Funds from the annual campaign help provide services for MDA families nationwide, including a free week-long summer camp which creates opportunities for kids living with muscular dystrophy and related life-threatening diseases to discover new interests, gain self-confidence and experience the independence of being away from home in an environment where barriers do not exist.
The MUSCLE UP! campaign draws a parallel between the body’s muscular system and a vehicle’s engine structure – both require care and maintenance to optimize their performance and ensure safety and comfort.
Contributions from the campaign also helps MDA fund groundbreaking research across diseases and provide individuals with life-enhancing programs and support services, including state-of-the-art multidisciplinary care at a nationwide network of more than 150 MDA Care Centers.
