The funds raised this year for COL will help directly support COL’s mission to provide safe shelter, advocacy, and essential support services to domestic violence survivors and their children across Greene, Morgan, Putnam, Hancock, and Baldwin counties. 

On Charity Day, each Tidal Wave location selects a local organization that will receive 50% of wash proceeds, plus all cash donations collected during the one-day event. The other 50% of wash proceeds are donated to Tidal Wave’s corporate philanthropic partner, Annandale Village.   

“We are grateful to everyone who came out to Tidal Wave to support our Charity Day event,” said CEO and founder Scott Blackstock. “We’re proud to make a difference for these incredible organizations during Charity Day and raise funds that help them to continue the important and impactful work they are doing within our communities.”  

 Tidal Wave had 295 participating locations this year, making it the company’s largest Charity Day event yet. In the event’s seventeen-year history, Tidal Wave’s Charity Day has raised over $2.8 million to support nonprofits across the country.   

“Tidal Wave Auto Spa’s generosity and the community’s support mean so much to us,” said Kimberly Bennett, Executive Director of Circle of Love. “These funds truly make a difference for survivors in our community, giving them the resources and second chance they need to rebuild their lives free from violence.”
