It’s time to giveaway another vehicle to a deserving person! Deserving Rides 2020
Do you know a deserving person in the area that could really use a vehicle right now?
2020 has been hard for everyone but despite it’s challenges, AAC is still giving back to our community anyway we can! After successfully running five “Deserving Rides” car giveaways, the Advanced Auto Clinic team is proud to be moving forward with another pro-community initiative. We are again for the 6th time, having our Deserving Rides car giveaway on December 19th. We are rebuilding rides to rebuild lives!
Go to AACDelavan.com/DeservingRides and NOMINATE A DESERVING PERSON before Dec. 15th!
Advanced Auto Clinic’s “Deserving Rides” program rewards Walworth county area residents who consistently put the needs of others before their own. We are asking people in the community to nominate a deserving person who could use a reliable vehicle. The winning individual is then awarded a reliable and safe vehicle. Deserving Rides is a way for us to give back, using our mechanical skills and expertise! Please nominate a deserving individual who goes above and beyond to give back to the community by submitting the nomination form.
WINNER ANNOUNCED DECEMBER 19TH LIVE ON FACEBOOK!
This event will be streaming on Facebook Live on Dec. 19th where we will announce the WSLD’s Santa’s Sleigh Giveaway Promotion winner and Deserving Rides Vehicle winner!
AAC is Committed to helping others and to making a positive impact on the Community!
Committed to helping others and to making a positive impact on their surroundings, everyone at Advanced Auto Clinic is thrilled to be coming together once again and collaborating on something that has been so well-received by locals in the past. The Deserving Rides program is based on a fairly straightforward process: local community members nominate someone who is deserving of a free vehicle, which Advanced Auto Clinic then gives away. To date, nominees have received a Chevy Tahoe, a Subaru Outback, a Ford Fusion, a Toyota Camry and a Chevy Malibu.
Advanced Auto Clinic owner Tony Lynn is always looking for ways to give back to the community and to make a difference in people’s lives, and by spearheading Deserving Rides, he has set himself apart as both a community leader and as someone who not only cares but is motivated to do good in the world. One of the recipients of a Deserving Rides vehicle, Jonathan, has used his new wheels to deliver food to people in need.
In a note of gratitude, Jonathan said…
“Tony and his crew fixed up this beautiful Subaru Outback (which just happens to be my favorite car) to give away to someone who serves the community. Unbeknownst to me, some incredible friends of mine had nominated me and I ended up being blessed enough to win this beautiful car.”
Tony has since replied to Jonathan’s comment, saying that…
“The car is a token of our appreciation for people like yourself that are part of our community. Without people like you our world would not be as good as it is.”
A business that cares about the people they serve, Advanced Auto Clinic in Delavan is aware of the hardships that people face from time to time, and in recognition of hard-working people of integrity, they have gifted the Deserving Rides Program to Walworth County. Taking even a cursory survey of the Walworth area, it is clear that the people here are appreciative of all that Tony and the whole Advanced Auto Clinic family has done and continue to do.

2019 Deserving Rides Winner Todd Harder
Our 2019 winner last year was Pastor Todd Harder from Faith Baptist Church in Delavan who was nominated by several local members of the community. Todd is a devoted husband and father and serves our community in many ways including assisting the local food pantry, delivering meals on Thanksgiving, helps with counseling people and setting up marriage classes and other programs, volunteers his time to the county police department as a chaplain and serves our nation as an Air Force Reserve Chaplain. He is the type of person who is always willing to help people when they ask!

Congratulations to Kathy on winning the Deserving Rides Reliable Vehicle Giveaway in 2018!
2017 Winner Patty Sonheim
In 2017 AAC received a donated GMC Yukon from Fred Krablean of Neenah and decided to give it away right away. Because this vehicle was an SUV, he marketed the give-away as for a deserving family. The winner of the Yukon was Patty Sonheim of Delavan.
2017 Winner Jonathan Bradley
AAC gave a Subaru away in December 2016 to recipient Jonathan Bradley. Jonathan has been using his new wheels to deliver food to people in need.
2016 Winner Bob Geist
On Dec. 10, 2016 AAC gave away a 2007 Ford Fusion to Bob Geist during the Deserving Rides program. When the nominations came in, a committee of five people evaluated the needs of 72 nominees before choosing the winner.
