SPECIAL THANKS — Houlton’s VIP Tires and Service received a special certificate from Make-A-Wish Maine for their recent fundraising effort during the holidays.
This year’s campaign came with a special incentive made by John Quirk, VIP’s president and CEO to match what the employees and customers donated in all VIP stores. This resulted in a total gift of $22,604 to the Make-A-Wish chapter. Houlton and Presque Isle branches were the two top campaign sites in Maine. VIP also has stores in New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
