Drivers who get their vehicles washed Friday, Sept. 15, at Tidal Wave Auto Spa, 4089 Fort Campbell Blvd., will be boosting donations to Trace Industries, a training and job program for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Trace, which has programs in Hopkinsville, Princeton and Madisonville, will receive 50% of all proceeds from car washes on that day. The other 50% will be donated to the nonprofit residential program Annandale Village, a corporate partner of Tidal Wave that provides assistance to adults with development disabilities in Georgia.
Elizabeth Knight, a spokeswoman for Trace Industries, said the program serves 64 adults at its three locations. Trace is part of the Pennyroyal Center, a nonprofit mental health agency.
Tidal Wave, located at the former site of Applebee’s restaurant, is part of a chain of 175 car washes in 23 states, a news release from the company states. Friday is the 15th annual Charity Day sponsored by Tidal Wave with a portion of the proceeds going to organizations in the local communities.
