Support beyond certification: ASE, AACF join forces
We’re excited to share that ASE is partnering with the Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation to bring Support Beyond Certification to ASE-certified professionals.
Who is AACF?
Since 1959, AACF has been the aftermarket’s safety net—providing emergency financial assistance to individuals and families in the aftermarket industry facing crises such as illness, injury, natural disasters, or other emergencies. Whether it’s covering rent, food, medical bills, or temporary housing, AACF helps keep families secure during life’s hardest moments.
This month’s spotlight: natural disaster relief
Hurricane season reminds us how quickly life can change. In 2024 alone, AACF provided over $260,000 in emergency relief to aftermarket families impacted by Hurricanes and other natural disasters. Those funds helped cover food, clothing, fuel, temporary housing, and other urgent needs so families could recover with dignity and stability.
AACF offers a special Natural Disaster Application designed to fast-track assistance, with most approvals processed in just a few days. That means when an ASE-certified professional faces disaster, help arrives quickly.
What this means for ASE-certified professionals
ASE sets the benchmark for professionalism in our industry. Now, through our partnership with AACF, certified professionals and their families also have a trusted place to turn when life takes an unexpected turn.
