Many people have reached out asking how they can help after the fire at our shop this week. While we are still working through the insurance process and figuring out the road ahead, there is one immediate need we wanted to share.

One of our mechanics lost all of his personal tools in the fire. Like many mechanics, he spent years building his own toolbox and equipment — the tools he uses every day to support his family and help keep our crews running. Unfortunately, those personal tools were not insured.

Our team at Zeppa’s is committed to helping him through this, and several people in the community have already asked if they could contribute as well. After a lot of thought, we decided to arrange a GoFundMe specifically for him and his family.

We are incredibly grateful for the support, prayers, calls, and messages our community has already shown during this difficult time. Please continue praying for our team, our employees, and everyone affected.
