A minimum donation of $5.00 is suggested.

An “elite” wash service is offered to businesses or individuals who donate $100 and above. Donors at this level will be presented
with a special certificate and a “thank you” gift from United Way of LaPorte County and will be invited to have a photo opportunity. 

This year, Michigan City Mayor Angie Nelson-Deuitch will be present during the 3:30-5:30pm shift, washing cars for $100.

Since 2011, more than $58,000 has been raised for the United Way through the car wash.
