Donate to the Museum

There are several ways that you can give back to the community by donating to the Blackhawk Museum. You can donate a vehicle to our Wheels for Wheelchairs programs, donate to the Children's Education and Transportation Fund, or donate a legacy gift to keep the Museum running.


Wheels for Wheelchairs

Wheels for Wheelchairs gives car collectors, aficionados and their families the chance to honor their passion and share the gift of mobility with hundreds and thousands of Americans in need of wheelchairs. Before your car goes to a new owner, let us share the ride with others. Donate your classic car, hot rod or any other favorite ride to Blackhawk.

Request a Ticket Donation

In general the Museum makes donations of admission tickets and memberships to other organizations stating an educational purpose. It is preferable that these groups be local to the East bay as the thought behind donating is to be a good and supportive neighbor. The Museum supports car clubs, other automobile museums and organizations dedicated to preserving classic cars and those groups who promote automobile hobbyists and enthusiasts. The Museum allots 12 packs of 4 tickets to be sent out each month. Donations may be made to other organizations if there remains a balance of tickets set aside for donations.
