- National Drive Electric Month (NDEM) starts on Friday, Sept. 11 and runs through Oct. 12, bringing EV rides, test drives, showcases, and community conversations about all the benefits of driving electric.

- Our partnership with bold.org, along with the dedicated support of Chris Celek, Aaron Choate, and the national EVA board, brought the Wisconsin EVA scholarship to life.
