Since its inception, the Cadillac Ball has raised over $1.5 million. All proceeds of are returned to the community through a monthly grant-making process, the release states, helping fill the financial holes for hundreds of local nonprofits, charities, and grassroots organizations.

The Rotary Club of Truckee was chartered on Feb. 15, 1978 and has a membership of nearly 100 active members who share a compelling sense of duty to their community.
