As a director with Bridgestone and TIA president, Hamlin brings over 27 years of experience in the tire and automotive industry

Sacramento, Calif.—The Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation (AACF) has welcomed Debra Hamlin to its board of trustees. Hamlin brings over 27 years of experience in the tire and automotive industry and currently serves as Director of Dealer Development, Operations, and Compliance for the Bridgestone Commercial Dealer Network (BCDN) at Bridgestone Americas.

As president of the board for the Tire Industry Association (TIA), Hamlin is an advocate for the industry, involved in training, education, and government affairs. She also leads initiatives with Truckers Against Trafficking and Women In Trucking.

“I am honored to represent the Tire Industry Association (TIA) and its respective members with this position on the AACF Board,” she said. “The commonalities shared by these two organizations make sense for working together to share the mission and vision of the AACF.” 

Hamlin served on a similar charitable foundation for the Bridgestone Retail Organization (BFRC Associate Assistance fund) for over 10 years and presided over the BFRC AAF from 2018 to 2024.

The Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation (AACF) has been helping aftermarket families turn tragedy into triumph since 1959. Like the industry, AACF is driven by passion and devoted to family. It’s tough to ask for help, but when someone in the aftermarket family faces profound circumstances, AACF is there when it seems like there’s nowhere else to turn. As a nonprofit, this is accomplished through the support of generous donors, awareness partners and dedicated volunteers.
