What a joyful and heartwarming day at our 8th Annual Deserving Rides Event!
On behalf of everyone at Deserving Rides, we want to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to all who came out, contributed, and celebrated with us. Your support made this year’s event one to remember!
We are thrilled to announce our 2022 Deserving Rides vehicle recipient: Elizabeth Grever! Elizabeth’s story touched our hearts, and we’re honored to provide her with a reliable vehicle as a token of appreciation for the incredible impact she’s made in the lives of others.
The celebration kicked off with festive live Christmas music from the DDHS Choir, filling the air with holiday spirit. Then came the 104.5 WSLD Santa Sleigh Giveaway, where one lucky attendee started the vehicle and drove off with over $2,500 in cash and prizes!
Guests were treated to fresh coffee and delicious donuts, generously donated by Delavan Dunkin Donuts—a perfect start to a winter morning.
We’re incredibly grateful to our generous sponsors:
🎄 NAPA Auto Parts of Delavan
🎄 WSLD 104.5
🎄 Valvoline Oil
🎄 And the entire Advanced Auto Clinic team
Your contributions, time, and passion make moments like this possible.
At Deserving Rides, we’re not just giving away vehicles—we’re driving hope, recognizing selflessness, and helping deserving individuals move forward with strength and dignity.
Thank you for being part of our mission to Rebuild Rides and Rebuild Lives.
