Czar's Promise
We’re proud to announce that Smart Motors Toyota has partnered with Czar’s Promise, a local 501(c)(3) nonprofit that’s making a big impact right here in Madison. Czar’s Promise supports families whose companion animals are battling cancer, provides financial, educational and emotional aid to those pet-owners, and funds cutting-edge cancer research for both companion animals and children through partnerships with the University of Wisconsin School of Veterinary Medicine and UW Health Kids – American Family Children’s Hospital. By teaming up with Czar’s Promise, we’re helping bring hope and support to the families, pets and children of our community. Whether it’s raising awareness, sponsoring events, or contributing to research grants, our collaboration helps strengthen the Madison region’s community-care fabric.

Children’s Theater of Madison

An exciting new 8-team slow-pitch softball league started in 2010.

As of 2021, they’ve grown and expanded to 24 teams and have gone co-ed after signing the first woman up as a team member. GMSS promotes team play, good sportsmanship, and participation for all players.

Casting for Kids
The Casting for Kids event was created to help children who are fighting cancer at the nationally recognized American Family Children's Hospital / UW Carbone Cancer Center. Participants in the event share a passion for children, community involvement, and fishing. They raise money by asking local fishing guides to take participants out fishing (including National and local celebrities) in a tournament format. In addition, the Casting for Kids event includes a fundraising dinner and both silent and live auctions with net proceeds being donated to the American Family Children's Hospital / UW Carbone Cancer Center.
