MAYFIELD VILLAGE, Ohio, Nov. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- For the ninth consecutive year, Progressive InsuranceSM will host its annual Keys to Progress vehicle giveaway on November 9, 2021. Ahead of Veterans Day, 45 veterans in need across the country and their families, along with five military-related organizations, will receive the keys to vehicles that will provide reliable transportation, helping them get back on the road and move forward in life.
Once again, Progressive worked with Enterprise Rent-A-Car to locate certified vehicles from Enterprise's U.S. fleet of high-quality, late-model used cars, vans and SUVs that could be purchased and given away with funds provided by Progressive. The vehicles, with insurance paid for six months by Enterprise, will be delivered to veterans, bringing the total number of donated vehicles through the Keys to Progress program to more than 800 since its inception.
"We're proud to once again honor those who have served our country and provide relief in the form of reliable transportation to these deserving veterans and military-related organizations," said Mike Sieger, Progressive Claims President. "We take a great deal of pride in our ability to continue with this incredible vehicle giveaway program despite the challenges of COVID-19 in hopes of improving the lives of military men and women experiencing tough circumstances."
