LAS VEGAS (May 28, 2026) – WOW Carwash is turning miles into hope with Racing for Wishes, a multi-state racing campaign dedicated to raising at least $10,000 for Make-A-Wish Nevada to help grant life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses in Nevada, like eight-year old Anthony who was born with a rare heart condition and wishes to go to Nintendo World.
Racing for Wishes was created by Heath Pomerantz, CEO of WOW Carwash, to tie with his competitions in a six-race series with Gridlife, a national motorsports and high-performance racing tour. Pomerantz is competing in races in South Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, New York, Connecticut, and California from April through September 2026.
There are three ways for people to support Racing for Wishes during Pomerantz’s race season, until Sept. 30:
"I am excited that my hobby of racing cars can benefit Make-A-Wish Nevada and change a child’s life," said Heath Pomerantz, CEO of WOW Carwash. "Every dollar helps bring hope, strength, and joy to wish children and families who need it most. I hope WOW Guests will join us to support Racing for Wishes. Between the miles I complete on the race track and the amount WOW Carwash will donate through Guests’ purchases, I am confident we can make a real difference."
"At Make-A-Wish Nevada, we say it takes a village to raise a child, but it takes an entire community to grant a wish," said Scott Rosenzweig, President and CEO, Make-A-Wish Nevada. "For kids battling critical illnesses, doctors write the prescriptions for healing, and we write the prescriptions for hope. We are thrilled to have the support of Heath Pomerantz and WOW Carwash to help us ensure every eligible child in Nevada can receive a wish and experience the joy and hope each wish delivers."
WOW Carwash will regularly provide updates on Pomerantz’s races including behind-the-scenes moments and real-time fundraising progress via @WOWCarwash on Instagram.
