Car Wash Fundraisers
 The
Car Wash Operators of New Jersey (CWONJ) and the
New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection
(NJDEP) have teamed up to create a joint program
to help charities raise money and improve New Jersey's
water quality. Most fundraising car washes are held
in parking lots that are not designed to treat stormwater
runoff. Pollutants such as dirt, soap, and oil, generated
from those car washes, run off the parking lots into
storm drains, and eventually flow into our surface
waterways and waterbodies untreated. Almost all storm
drains found along streets and sidewalks are NOT
connected to the sanitary sewer systems which lead
to treatment plants.
Raise Money, Protect the
Environment
Participating car washes will help your nonprofit
organization or school, work with local, professional
car washes to raise money without harming the environment.
Participating car washes will offer their services
at discounted rates and personally work with groups
to meet their fundraising needs. Instead of holding
a parking lot car wash, your organization will sell
tickets at face value and receive 50 percent of all
ticket sales.
