Charities

At Mass Cruisers We Believe In Giving Back To Our Community

Charities that we support

The MASS CRUISERS AUTO CLUB charity distributions of $3311 for
2024 were donated to The Amvets, Gillys Sober House, Wrentham
Developmental Center,for unfunded client needs, and three
automotive student scholarships to help defray the cost of tools and
other essentials or further education for students entering the
automotive industry trade. This is our way of supporting the much
needed automotive vehicle service industry into the future.
100% of the Monies for our supported charities comes from donations
at our by-weekly cruise night and other events held by the club. We
are proud to return 100% of these funds to our supported charities.

Tools For Kids

The MASS CRUISERS AUTO CLUB TOOLS 4 KIDS program embodies our commitment to empowering the next generation of automotive professionals by ensuring they start their careers equipped for success. We understand that many aspiring technicians come from backgrounds where access to tools is limited, which is why we take pride in gathering and organizing essential automotive tools that pave the way for their futures.

Each donation is a stepping stone for these students, transforming their dreams into tangible opportunities. By working closely with local vocational schools and generous supporters, we create customized tool sets that meet the specific needs of graduating students ready to dive into the automotive workforce.

Together, we are not just giving away tools; we are igniting passions, fostering skills, and ensuring that every young mechanic has the tools they need to thrive in a field that is vital to our community’s future. Join us in this mission and help us drive change, one tool at a time.

MASS CRUISERS Automobile Club Workforce Grant

The MASS CRUISERS AUTOMOBILE CLUB WORKFORCE GRANT is a flexible grant to aid a graduating Technical/Vocational High School student of financial need, as determined by their school, for further education or preparation for entry into the automotive service and repair industry. This grant may be used for any related automotive workforce readiness. It includes, but is not limited to, tool purchase, further education, books, transportation, industry licensing, or other use approved by the Mass Cruisers Auto Club.
Funding for the WORKFORCE GRANTS comes from the 50-50 proceeds at our Bass Pro Shops cruises and voluntary direct donations made at our club trailer or club events, where we have an information table.

Cruisers & The WDC

At Mass Cruisers, our partnership with the Wrentham Development Center thrives on a shared commitment to community enhancement and empowerment.  Together, we create unique opportunities that promote inclusion and provide valuable resources, fostering a sense of belonging and purpose among those we serve. This collaboration not only deepens our impact but also enriches our cruising events with heartwarming stories and the unwavering spirit of resilience, reminding us that every journey we take is about more than just the destination.

In addition to supporting the automotive industry and hobby, the Mass Cruisers also want to support the local communities. Our primary means of accomplishing this is collecting donations for five local food pantries at our bi-weekly cruise nights. We serve the pantries in Stoughton, Attleboro, Wrentham, Walpole, and Foxboro.
Each cruise night features one of the pantries, and volunteers from that pantry are on hand to assist and collect any food donated. Any cash donations are collected and distributed equally among the five pantries. Over the past two seasons, we have collected over fifty thousand dollars and over ten tons of food.
