2024 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance Raises Record Amount for Charity
“A shared love of cars brings a world of people to Pebble Beach each August, and it is heartening to see how much that community of car people also cares for children in need,” said Pebble Beach Concours Chairman Sandra Button.
Pebble Beach Company CEO David Stivers also stressed the many people who come together to make the Concours a success and raised these funds: “I’m very grateful to the professional staffs of both the Company and the Concours, who put their all into making the Concours the leading event of its kind. Also, the event would not be what it is without the participation of entrants, judges, and sponsors, the dedicated efforts of a host of volunteers, and the strong support of our local community.”
Since it began in 1950, the Pebble Beach Concours has now raised more than $41 million for charity.
Many of these charitable donations serve to help children and teens in the local community. Through the Concours’ primary charitable partner, Pebble Beach Company Foundation, these funds are distributed to nearly 100 of the region’s best youth-focused nonprofit educational programs. The Concours’ annual charity drawing—bolstered this year by generous gifts from Lexus, Ford Motor Company, INFINITI, and Mercedes-Benz—directly aids several charities, including the Boys & Girls Clubs of Monterey County, Montage Health Foundation, MY Museum, Natividad Foundation, Rancho Cielo, Salinas Valley Health Foundation, Seneca Family of Agencies, and United Way Monterey County.
The Concours and the Foundation also support several educational programs that encourage the next generation of automotive enthusiasts while celebrating the memory of inspirational automotive leaders such as Phil Hill, Jules “J.” & Sally Heumann, John Lamm, and Don Williams.
The 74th Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance will take place on Sunday, August 17, 2025, and will celebrate the centennials of Invicta and Chrysler, the creations of Virgil Exner, and the 75th anniversary of Formula 1—with other features to come.
