About: “Three times a year, students from the ATF and ITF programs operate public sales where refurbished cars and computers are offered to the community at competitive prices. These sales provide ATF and ITF students with the opportunity to practice their customer service skills, earn Student Service Learning hours, and develop a deeper appreciation for community involvement.
