"This started as a way to honor my dad. Now it’s a way to change lives in his memory."
Denise Wilcox
Truck N For A Cause, Founder
Driven by Passion.
Fueled by Purpose
Honoring heroes, one mile at a time.
Truck N For A Cause is a nonprofit organization bringing truckers, bikers, and car enthusiasts together to raise funds for Illinois-based veteran and first responder charities.
Denise is the heart behind Truck N For A Cause, a nonprofit born from her love for trucks and her father’s legacy as a lifelong driver.
What began as a tribute has grown into a movement—uniting truckers, bikers, and everyday heroes to raise thousands for Illinois-based veteran and first responder charities.
With every event, Denise brings her passion, purpose, and pride in her community to life.
