For the 8th consecutive year, Aardvark Automotive in Amarillo, Texas has had the enormous honor of participating in the Wheels to Prosper Program. This year, the recipient of the Wheels to Prosper Program at Aardvark Automotive is Melissa Mata. According to Brandon Anderson, owner of Aardvark Automotive, “Each year since 2011, we’ve awarded a vehicle to a deserving individual who truly benefits by receiving a great used car in excellent mechanical condition. The individual must be able to pay the tax, title, and six months of insurance. We consider this a helping hand, not a hand-out,” he says.

“I’m thrilled that Mrs. Mata was the recipient this year. She is raising two school-aged sons, and her grandson and walks miles to work each week. The only time she even asks for a ride from someone else is when she needs to bring her grandson to work with her. On her husband’s days off, he is able to watch their grandson. This is a hardworking family who needed a hand, and we received numerous letters from her coworkers raving about her work ethic, her willingness to help others, and her reluctance to complain about anything,” Anderson said.

Continuing he added, “Melissa is exactly the type of person we hope to help with this program, and we are honored to have been able to provide her with a reliable vehicle to help make her commute to work shorter, easier, and safer. At Aardvark Automotive, we did a full inspection, and repairs to ensure the car is mechanically safe sound, and running great. We also owe our thanks to our awesome community partners who also donated their skills or services. For example, Windshields Unlimited replaced a window, O’Reilly’s helped with parts, and Discount Collision provided a bit of bodywork.” According to Anderson, the woman who donated the car for the program, wished to remain anonymous.

The Wheels to Prosper initiative was started by auto shop owners striving to change the reputation and quality of service in the automotive repair industry. By helping those in need, participating auto shop owners hope to make a positive difference in their own communities as well. To date, more than 200 vehicles have been awarded through the program.
