Tips for cheer & dance team car washes
- Put your loudest, most energetic members on the curb with signs — cheer teams are famously good at waving cars in. Rotate them every 30–45 minutes.
- Wear team shirts or practice wear in team colors. It reads instantly as a school fundraiser from the road and keeps it family-friendly.
- Say what the money is for on the biggest sign: “Help send us to Nationals!” beats “Car Wash.”
- Competition season fees add up — pre-sell tickets to families and coworkers so you’re paid even if it rains.

How charity car washes work
A team, school or nonprofit borrows a parking lot for a morning, sets out buckets and signs, and washes cars for a set price or a donation. The money goes straight to their cause — uniforms, trips, medical bills, animal rescue, you name it.
Most run on a Saturday between 9 AM and 3 PM, and many are cash-only, so bring a few bills. A $10–$20 donation is typical; tipping extra is always appreciated.
