West Side de Berkeley Car Club was established in 1978 by Anthony Vasquez Sr. along with his good friends from Berkeley, California.
In 2013 we became a non-profit organization. We incorporated the Friends and Families from the Berkeley Community and other surrounding areas and began holding charitable events and fundraisers along with supporting other Bay Area and beyond car clubs with their fundraising efforts.
Anthony became aware of the Oakland Kaiser Pediatric Intensive Care Unit via his niece who has been a Nurse in the ICU for over 15 years. After learning more about the children, it motivated him to do something. The Club held an event to raise money for toys, gift cards, etc. for the children that are in the special unit for delivery during the Holidays. From there, we have been holding special fundraising events and now have the opportunity to support the Berkeley Youth Alternatives (BYA), community-based educational programs, learning resources, and youth development services based in Berkeley, Ca.
Our goal is to create a positive environment and welcome all who share the same best interests enjoying classic cars, in a family atmosphere while supporting great causes.
