ALL TIME RECORD $375,000 RAISED BY THE BERGSTROM AUTOMOTIVE TEAM TO HELP MAKE LIFE-CHANGING WISHES COME TRUE

Northeast Wisconsin (July 1, 2025) — In June, Bergstrom Automotive team members partnered with Make-A-Wish® Wisconsin to raise crucial funds to help grant the wishes of local children battling critical illnesses. During their 2025 JUNE 3500 campaign, with support from our communities, Bergstrom Automotive team members raised a record $375,000 to provide needed hope, strength and joy to hundreds of local kids facing critical illnesses, and their families, through the power of a wish! This brings their total contribution to nearly $3.75 million over this incredibly impactful partnership.

“Thank you to our guests, business partners, team and the wonderful people in our communities for generously supporting Make-A-Wish® through our JUNE 3500 Make-A-Wish campaign,” said John F. Bergstrom, Executive Chairman, Bergstrom Automotive. “Giving Wish Kids something to look forward to creates a life-changing impact and is transformational for the kids, their families and our entire community.”

Throughout the month, the Bergstrom team conducted numerous creative fundraisers and all Bergstrom Automotive dealerships donated $5 for every test drive taken and $50 for every vehicle leased or purchased. Plus, Bergstrom Automotive donated $5 for each new fan on their social media platforms. On Saturday, June 21, Bergstrom dealerships throughout the Fox Valley, Green Bay, Oshkosh & Madison held a special Oil Change Day offering discounted oil changes with a donation of $15 or more, and they matched all donations made to Make-A-Wish Wisconsin. Hundreds of oil changes were performed. Plus, Bergstrom team members doubled their love for wish kids, by doubling all donations for test drives, vehicle sales and all new fans on social media!

Media partners are invited to join us for our JUNE 3500 celebration and check presentation on July 9, 2025 at Noon at Bergstrom Collision Center & Body Shop, 2625 Industry Court, Green Bay.
