The founding of Phoenix E.O.D. would never have been possible without the help and support of so many along the way.
As we’ve grown, we’ve discovered that nearly everyone we’ve encountered—those we now affectionately call the Phoenix Family—shares the same spirit: lifting others up and taking care of the person beside them in the trenches. From close family and friends to The Four Horsemen and everyone in between, it’s become clear—we’re truly #InThisTogether.
The Rise From The Ashes: Pay It Forward Campaign was born from that spirit.
Launched in 2022, this campaign was created to give back—to “pay it forward” to deserving individuals in the detailing community who’ve faced adversity, yet kept going. Thanks to generous donations throughout the year, Phoenix E.O.D. delivers surprise gift packages each December, packed with tools, supplies, and encouragement.
Because we know: a little hope can change everything!

How The PEODRFTAPIF Campaign Works
Nominations
Between Thanksgiving (typically the last Thursday in November) and Christmas, December 25th, nominations of deserving people are accepted for consideration. Nominations can be anyone, but should pertain to the detailing community and to those that can truly benefit from automotive detailing supplies.
Once the nomination period for the year comes to a close, our panel of Judges will convene and winners for the campaign will be determined. Winners will be awarded prizes based upon the need and merit of submissions.
Submissions and any questions should be emailed to info@phoenixeod.com.
Donations
Donations in the form of Detailing Supplies (chemicals, shop supplies, tools, towels, brushes, polishers, pads, etc...) are collected all year long (January 1st through December 20th of the current year) and are set aside for the Campaign.
Due to the overwhelming generosity of our community, we are ALWAYS in need of help with shipping! If you'd like to donate to the shipping fund you can do so here:

The Rules Of The Campaign

- Entries MUST be submitted via the nomination form and must be submitted prior to 11:59pmET on December 25th of the current campaign year. DMs will not be accepted and can get overlooked and lost.
- Entries should include a short narrative on why the nominee should win the giveaway if you want your entry to be considered.
- One entry per nomination/nominator. Multiple entries may cause for disqualification.
