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

UW-Madison Transportation Services is a strong partner of Community Car. In 2004 we signed an agreement to routinely add cars on campus in the upcoming years. Currently, the UW hosts 9 cars on campus. Thanks to Lance Lunsway and Renee Callaway for their support and inspiration!

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 of Citizen Action of Wisconsin for his help securing this parking space!

Thanks to Urban Land Interests for providing a parking space in the parking garage at their beautiful Block 89 development just off the Capitol Square.  Paul Muench was extremely helpful in bringing our Honda Civic Hybrid in from the cold.

Willy Street Co-op provided 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 Haefer, of Town Bank of 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

Seven community members have generously invested in Community Car: Jini Kai, Fritz Grutzner, Peder Moren, John Young, Mark Daugherty, Jay Ferm, and Sue Jones. All live within 5 miles of the Capitol - literally local investors!

Lynn Imme, our former insurance agent at Mortenson, Matzelle & Meldrum secured our fleet automobile insurance in record time.

Mike Zimbrick and his team at Zimbrick Honda, Lynn Moldenhauer, Mile Tolleson and Mike Wagner, helped us get a good deal on our first two cars, including a Civic Hybrid.

Budget Rental Car provides longer-term car-rentals for our members at a discount.  Excellent for that weekend get-away.
