“We’re really proud of Drive for Schools,” said Karl Rice, Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk president. “We know how valuable this fundraiser is for our local schools, so it’s very rewarding to see it grow every year. We’d like to thank school volunteers for their hard work, the business community for generous prize donations, and everyone who bought tickets to make this fundraiser such an amazing success.”
Each participating school keeps all of the money they raise, with no overhead costs. School volunteers receive everything they need for the fundraiser including tickets, posters, prizes and support. Local schools report using the money raised for valuable art, music, science, and sports programs, classroom reading aids and computers.

The Capitola Auto Mall Dealer Group and Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk share the cost of the car and $1,000 cash prizes as well as donate staff time to organize and run the fundraiser.
