We have
oodles of partners to thank. Please visit this
page again as we continue to highlight them.

A huge
thank you to Kathleen Woit and her staff at the
Madison
Community Foundation for contracting with us
to add a minivan to our fleet for non-profit groups and our members.
The van is the first of a series of gifts Madison Community Foundation
is presenting to the City of Madison in celebration of the City's
150th birthday.
Smart
Toyota
of Madison
recently donated the use of 2
Prius hybrids to assist in
expanding our Community Car
fleet. This is a generous gift and
we appreciate Smart Toyota's
community spirit.

A big thank
you to the Social
Justice Center for donating a parking spot for
our hybrid vehicle on Willy St. An extra special thank you to Rick
Fairchild, formerly of Citizen
Action of Wisconsin, for his help securing this parking
space!

garage at their beautiful Block
89 development just off the Capitol Square.

Civic Hybrid in from the cold.

Community Car with our first parking spaces for free! Our
sincerest thanks to General Manager Anya Firszt for
bringing Community Car to the Willy Street neighborhood. Thanks
to everyone at the Co-op for providing fresh, delicious,
organic food to Madison.
Bruce
Mayer
and Andrea Hayes, of Wegner
CPAs & Consultants have minimized the pain of starting
a new business by helping us get our books and taxes in order.
Many thanks.
Thanks
to Madison Development Corporation for believing
in us and being the first to commit financially. Dave Scholtens
and Frank Staniszewski were tremendously helpful
and together with Town Bank came up with a lending package to launch
Community Car. Madison Development
Corporation is a publicly funded organization. Your tax dollars
are at work helping small start-up businesses like us.

Dennis

Madison, stepped in next with a line of credit. We are grateful
that this new community bank took a chance on us. They are located
on the Capitol Square at 100 West Wisconsin, around the corner from
our offices. Town Bank is a community bank specializing in
Business and Private banking. They are excited to be part
of the dynamic growth in downtown Madison

All live within 5 miles of the Capitol - literally local investors!

in record time.

Honda, Lynn Moldenhauer, Mile Tolleson

first two cars, including a Civic Hybrid.
