This month, more than 100 veterans and their families will be getting keys to newly-refurbished vehicles as part of Progressive's fifth annual Keys to Progress® event.

Progressive works with local National Auto Body Council member body shops to refurbish and donate vehicles for the Keys to Progress program.
Progressive's Keys to Progress program offers military families reliable transportation to get on the road and move forward in life. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, approximately forty percent of veterans live in rural areas where transportation options are limited, and where it's necessary for them to travel far to receive medical care, reach employment centers, and access other services to which they are entitled.
"We're excited to be celebrating our fifth year of giving back to veterans through our Keys to Progress program. This is one way we support our country's military," said Mike Sieger, Claims group president. "For many veterans, transportation to work, school, medical appointments or even social events can be a hardship and we recognize their need for reliable transportation so they can live the life they deserve."
"Without a car, I had to work evenings and overnights to accommodate my husband's work schedule, which meant I often missed important times with my family," said, Cody Hall, Navy veteran and 2016 Keys to Progress recipient. "My family means the world to me and receiving this car provided me the freedom to get a day job so I could spend more time with them."
Progressive works with numerous organizations to make Keys to Progress donations a reality:
