RipTide Car Wash Successfully Raises Funds for Hurricane Relief Through Charity Drive and Giveaway

RipTide Car Wash Raises Funds for Hurricane Relief

RipTide Car Wash has successfully completed its Game Room Giveaway and Charity Drive, raising an impressive $11,490 to assist in ongoing recovery efforts for communities still affected by Hurricane Helene. The initiative, which received widespread support from local residents and businesses, was driven by a commitment to foster hope and rebuild in the aftermath of the disaster.

Chris Gardner, the CEO of RipTide Car Wash, expressed gratitude for the overwhelming response from patrons, stating, "We're overwhelmed by the generosity and excitement from our customers. This campaign was about more than just incredible prizes—it was about restoring hope. Every dollar raised is going directly to support rebuilding communities that are still recovering one year after the storm hit."

The Success of the Charity Drive

Running through all RipTide locations across North Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee until the end of April, the Game Room Giveaway encouraged community involvement through donations and social media engagement. Notably, several organizations within the car wash industry also contributed, demonstrating a collective commitment to community support.

Karen Wentworth, Controller/HR Director at ChemQuest, commented on their participation, remarking, "We believe it is our responsibility to give back to our local community through the giving of our time, talents, and resources. We are honored to support RipTide Car Wash in their hurricane relief efforts."

Winner Announcement

A highlight of the campaign was the grand prize: a rare, custom 1965 Ford Mustang Pool Table. This exclusive item is the only officially licensed Collector's Edition pool table from Ford Motor Company, featuring its own VIN number and components from real Mustangs. The winner, Jonathan Simms, expressed his delight at receiving the unique collector's item, stating, "I cannot express how excited I am to have been selected as the recipient of the grand prize. My grandfather had that exact '65 Mustang convertible in that same beautiful red color many moons ago when I was a child, so nostalgia instantly struck as I was flooded with fond memories."

RipTide is committed to embodying a blend of enterprise and purpose, continually engaging in philanthropic efforts in the neighborhoods it serves. All RipTide locations actively support local charitable causes by donating free car washes or pre-paid memberships.
