Introduction

Cenla Tire & Lube was founded by Alexander Mabou, who turned his passion for fixing vehicles into a business.

With the support of his wife Amanda, they opened the shop while expecting their first child. Unfortunately, their daughter was born with a congenital heart defect, leading to weeks in the hospital.

During this trying time, AutoLeap supported them with the tools to keep their new business running smoothly remotely.

“Without AutoLeap, I think we would have lost our shop and the baby.”

Congenital Heart Defect Awareness

Congenital heart defects are the most common type of birth defect, affecting the structure of a baby’s heart and how it works. CHDs can range from mild forms, like a small hole in the heart, to severe malformations, such as complete absence of one or more chambers or valves. These defects can affect the overall health, impacting how blood flows through the heart and to the rest of the body. Awareness and early diagnosis are crucial to manage and treat these conditions effectively. To learn more and support research and families dealing with CHD, visit the American Heart Association or other related organizations.
