Jiffy Lube partners with police foundation

Jiffy Lube of Indiana announced its partnership with the Central Indiana Police Foundation for a unique initiative.

During routine traffic stops, law enforcement officers across the Central Indiana area will provide individuals facing vehicle equipment violations with a $25 Jiffy Lube gift card to fund fixing the issue rather than a ticket or fine.

Between the 20 police departments, 1,145 officers will participate in this year’s program. Jiffy Lube of Indiana has donated nearly $300,000 to participating law enforcement departments across Central Indiana to provide officers with the $25 Jiffy Lube gift card.

This initiative began in February 2021, with the intent to provide gift cards to support the maintenance needed to avoid future violations.
