Auto Europe Offers Assistance to Travel Agents in the Aftermath of Hurricane Harvey

Portland, ME -- Sept 1, 2017 – Auto Europe, in solidarity with their travel agent partners, is pledging $5.00 per reservation booked by any travel agent, nationwide, for their client now through Sept 30, 2017, towards a relief fund to assist agents in the aftermath of the destruction wreaked by Hurricane Harvey.  In addition, Auto Europe's CEO also vows to personally match the pledge.
 
Funds will be held in a trust and will be distributed to agents in need of assistance in Texas on January 1, 2018. Agents in need of urgent support can contact Auto Europe immediately.
 
“We as an industry need to unite in this time of crisis and help our fellow partners.  With an estimated 400+ agencies in the storm’s path, my wish is that other suppliers will also rally and show their support with similar pledges or contributions,” states Imad Khalidi, President, Auto Europe.
 
Auto Europe’s commitment to supporting their network of Travel Agent partners is a long standing tradition. In 2005, Auto Europe contributed funds to a similar relief program created to support agents impacted by Hurricane Katrina and in 2007 Auto Europe dispatched funds to agents affected by the deadly wildfires that charred southern California.  In addition to relief programs, Auto Europe is a member of ASTA, the leading global advocate for Travel Agent & ICTA, which promotes a standard of industry knowledge and excellence.
