Hagerty Drivers Foundation

The Hagerty Drivers Foundation demonstrates comprehensive commitment to automotive culture through its three-pronged approach: supporting technical education, enabling new drivers, and preserving vehicular heritage. Its License to the Future programme achieved significant impact in 2024, funding driver training for 300 students.

The Foundation’s stewardship of the National Historic Vehicle Register, which added its 35th and 36th vehicles during the Cars at the Capital event in Washington D.C., establishes crucial documentation standards for significant vehicles. This federally recognised programme ensures systematic preservation of American automotive heritage.

This balanced approach to supporting both future generations and historical preservation shows how industry foundations can effectively bridge automotive past and future.
