Autobell Car Wash Supports Red Cross with Wash Donations and Charlotte Blood Drive

Autobell Car Wash is continuing its more than a 20-year partnership with the American Red Cross this month by supporting disaster relief efforts and encouraging blood donations. From Monday, Feb. 16, through Sunday, March 1, 2026, Autobell will donate $1 to the American Red Cross disaster relief fund for every wash purchased through the Autobell App, with a minimum donation of $10,000.

Purchased washes may be redeemed at any Autobell location in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland or Delaware. Autobell locations are open daily, with hours varying by site. A complete list of locations and hours is available at autobell.com.

In addition, Autobell will host a Red Cross blood drive on Thursday, Feb. 19, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at its 1651 Sardis Rd. N location in Charlotte. The Red Cross Bloodmobile will be on site to accept donations. Appointments are strongly encouraged and will be honored first, but walk-ins are also welcome.

As a thank you, the American Red Cross will provide donors with a $20 e-gift card to a merchant of their choice, and Autobell will reward donors with a full service wash ticket. The Red Cross is currently experiencing a severe blood shortage, due in part to the recent winter storms.

Individuals interested in donating can learn eligibility requirements, register and schedule appointments through the American Red Cross website. Donors may also download the Red Cross blood donor app from the Apple app Store or Google Play to schedule and manage appointments and complete RapidPass prior to donation. All donors must bring a Red Cross donor card or valid photo ID to the donation site.

“American Red Cross responders are constantly turning compassion into action to prevent and relieve suffering here at home and around the world,” said Carl Howard, president and chief operating officer of Autobell Car Wash. “For more than two decades, we’ve been honored to support their mission, from disaster response and blood collection to lifesaving education and assistance for military members and their families during emergencies.”
