Eriksen Chevrolet sponsors the WQAD-TV 3 Degree Guarantee charitable donation program, which airs nightly on WQAD-TV/Channel 8. A selected local charity receives $20 from Eriksen Chevrolet for each day of the month the forecast temperature is within the three degree guarantee. Every night the Storm Track 8 team of meteorologists will predict the next day’s high temperature. The forecast temperatures are compared to the actual temperature recorded by the National Weather Service.

If your charity or organization would like to be considered for the Three Degree Guarantee, please send a letter or email describing the organization and how the donation will be used to:
