Michigan City, IN — The Michigan City Police Department, Michigan City Fire Department, and Michigan City Area Schools will once again be “United for the United Way” as they hold their traditional Car Wash fundraiser today. In addition, all donations made online on October 1 at https://www.unitedwaylpc.org/ will be credited to the car wash effort. “This annual car wash isn’t just about raising money for charity – it’s about celebrating teamwork, community pride, and the spirit of giving back. In 2015, the groups decided to combine forces, working together to wash cars at Ames Field. Since 2011, more than $61,200 has been raised for the United Way through the car wash. Additional partners assisting with the event include Sodexo, Captain Ed’s Furniture Showroom and WIMS Radio.
