[Full Press Release by Crew Carwash available here]

The power of community was on full display this July as Crew Carwash customers helped raise more than $268,000 for Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies across the Midwest during the company's annual Crew for Kids fundraiser. As a result, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metropolitan Chicago will receive more than $19,000 to support life-changing mentoring relationships for local young people. 

Held July 18-19 across all 60 Crew Carwash locations, the fundraiser donated 50% of proceeds from Ultimate 360° and Ultimate Wash purchases directly to Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies serving communities where Crew operates. Thanks to the generosity of customers, team members, and supporters, this year's event raised a total of $268,632.

For BBBSChi, these funds help advance our mission of creating and supporting one-to-one mentoring relationships that empower young people to reach their full potential. Every dollar raised contributes to providing youth with access to caring adult mentors who offer guidance, encouragement, and opportunities for growth.

"We're incredibly thankful for the team members, customers, and communities who helped make this year's Crew for Kids a success," said Sally Grant, 3rd Generation Family Business Leader and Executive Vice President of Crew Carwash. "Every Ultimate wash purchased helps connect more young people with mentors who build confidence, encourage bigger dreams, and help kids reach their full potential."

The partnership reflects a shared commitment to investing in young people and strengthening communities through mentorship. Since its launch in 2010, Crew for Kids has raised nearly $2 million for Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies throughout the Midwest.

We are grateful to Crew Carwash, its employees, and every customer who participated in this year's fundraiser. Their support helps ensure more young people across Metropolitan Chicago have the opportunity to be matched with a mentor and build a brighter future.
