AUTOBACS SEVEN Co., Ltd. (Representative Director & Chief Executive Officer: Yugo Horii) has donated a portion of the sales proceeds from its private brand "AQ. (AUTOBACS QUALITY.)" to the Public Interest Incorporated Foundation Traffic Orphans Educational Association and the Public Interest Incorporated Foundation Traffic Orphans Development Fund, which carry out support activities for children who have lost their guardians in traffic accidents.

 

As a company in the automotive industry, we aim to contribute to improving traffic safety in society. We are working toward the realization of a society free from traffic accidents through initiatives such as promoting traffic safety via our products and maintenance services, as well as conducting traffic safety awareness campaigns at our stores.

 

Although the number of traffic accidents has been decreasing year by year in recent years, there are still children who face financial hardship due to losing their guardians in traffic accidents. Against this backdrop, we have made donations to the Public Interest Incorporated Foundation Traffic Orphans Scholarship Association and the Public Interest Incorporated Foundation Traffic Orphans Development Fund to support the stabilization of their livelihoods and their healthy development.

 

We hope that these efforts will bring hope and vitality to children who have lost their guardians in traffic accidents, and we will continue to explore initiatives that contribute to solving social issues.
