McKinney, TX (November 8, 2023)— ZIPS Car Wash (www.zipscarwash.com) is proud to support local veterans and active military as we honor their dedication and service this week on Veterans Day. ZIPS will offer a FREE Premier car wash to all United States veterans and active military personnel this Saturday, November 11.  Honorees can visit any participating ZIPS location and enter wash code 1123 to redeem the offer on Saturday at over 20 participating locations in DFW and 280 participating locations across the country. ZIPS Car Wash showed its local support of veterans this week with a donation to Warrior’s Keep, a 501(C)(3) tax exempt non-profit organization based in McKinney, whose mission is to unite, empower and enhance the quality of life for veterans with the use of Outdoor Therapy.

"The Warriors Keep is grateful to ZIPS for supporting our mission to provide Outdoor Adventure Therapy (OATH) to our veterans in the community and across the nation," said Matt Thomas, Board President, The Warrior’s Keep.

ZIPS has focused its charitable efforts on those who have served our country by offering free washes for veterans and active military for over 10 years on Veterans Day, and over the last 2 years, has donated $20,000 to local and national veterans service organizations. Within the last week, ZIPS has donated a total of $3,000 to veteran focused organizations across the country, including the donation to Warrior’s Keep.

“On Veterans Day, and always, it’s important for us to recognize and elevate the service these men and women have provided to our country and the sacrifices they have made for our freedom on the day set aside to honor them,” said Gene Dinkens, CEO, ZIPS Car Wash. “We want to say thank you to each and every veteran and active military personnel and we’re continuing to extend our support efforts beyond just this one day by strengthening our local partnerships with veterans service organizations,” he added.

Guests who qualify for a free wash on Veterans Day are encouraged to use wash code 1123 when they arrive at the pay station for expedited service at their local ZIPS. These honored guests are encouraged to detail their vehicle with ZIPS complimentary microfiber drying towels, surface cleaner, turbo vacs and compressed air to get their vehicle looking great inside and out.
