Barrett-Jackson Selling for Charity

Barrett-Jackson has helped raise more than $118 million for charity to date and will add to that amazing total when nine vehicles are sold to benefit non-profit organizations during the 49th Annual Scottsdale Auction, January 11-19, 2020, at WestWorld of Scottsdale. One-hundred percent of the hammer price from each vehicle, generously donated by sponsors and private collectors from across the country, will go directly to each designated charity.

“Supporting philanthropic organizations is the very foundation of our company,” said Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “It brings everyone at Barrett-Jackson immense joy knowing we’re helping make a difference in communities nationwide. This tradition of giving back was started by my parents, Nelly and Russ, and their business partner Tom Barrett, more than 50 years ago. We’re proud to honor their legacy and look forward to raising more funds and awareness for charity when nine vehicles, including two very special VIN 001 offerings, cross the block in Scottsdale in January.”
