Pontiac is returning to NBC’s “The Apprentice” for the two-part season finale of the show, beginning May 29th. The show will be based around a first-of-its-kind interactive, viewer-driven charity event. Details of the program, including how viewers around the country can get involved, will be announced during the program. Pontiac first appeared on Donald Trump’s “Apprentice” during season three when teams were charged with creating an early order brochure for the new Pontiac Solstice roadster. The episode “sparked a near frenzy,” according to GM, including a 1,400 percent jump in traffic on Pontiac.com with the first 1,000 Solstices selling in just 41 minutes. “The Apprentice” airs Mondays at 9 p.m. (eastern) on NBC. Part 1 of the season finale airs May 29th and Part 2 airs June 5th.

I hope some of the money raised will go to Hospice of Northern Kentucky….I have always loved the show, and Mr. Trump is a riot sometime…

The Multiple Sclerosis Foundation needs contributions to continue research on the cause/s and a cure for this debilitating disease. I am a loyal fan of “The Apprentice” show having watched every season.

There are so many charities that need money for so many things..and people. I believe that probably the biggest would be helping the children with Aids…then, child diabetes, MS, MD, pediatric wards of hospitals that are in need..any where in the USA. Maybe a donation to St. Jude’s in Memphis..that would be nice for the children with cancer.
I think with all the bravado that Donald Trump seems to pull off on his TV show and in public, it is more of a facade of the real person underneath.
He seems to want to help people always, and that takes a heart that is open to all.
I have watched this show since the get go…and it is probably the best..yes..the best “real life” TV show on.
I am not really sure which candidate I favor…either one would be a good employee for Mr. Trump.
I think Pontiac and GM are very generous in donating two cars to be auctioned off. With the economy as it is..that was a very very big deal.
Thank you GM/Pontiac Division.
Thanks again for having a very wonderful new automobile. It is very bold, sexy and understated in an overstated way…it is an awesome car.
Thanks again…

I just love watching The Apprentice, I know they’ve done a show, and donated some money for Autism, but I would like them to choose Autism again. My nephew passed away last year at 13, due to Autism.
P.S. Mu husband and I have a 2005 pontiac G6 and just love it.

There is a project called Dog Tags for Kids that sends Dog Tags engraved “With Love From Dad or Mom with the Branch of the Service and Iraq 2006 on them to soldiers who then send them to their children. They are a great way for deployed parents to connect with their children. It provides the child something to hold onto 24 hours a day.
I can’t remember the Apprentice doing any fund raisers for military type charities, especially deployed military.
http://www.dogtagsforkids.com 167,000 soldiers who have sent them to their kids can’t be wrong!

I would like to see any donation that could be given to “Disabled American Veterans” fund.I am a Vet but was lucky enough to return home with all my body parts. These men who gave so much for their nation and keep on giving need any help you can find in your heart to give. Thank you for taking time to listen.

I would like to request some money for a Land Conservancy (Mokoma Conservancy) in North Central PA.
We have protected 250 acres from development. In a Enviromentally sensitive area. They money is needed to restore the forest to its natural state after being logged out. This area is open to the public for recreation of many sorts. We are trying to preserve this area for many future generations. I have watched all of the seasons. Why doesn’t Donald hire more of these people. It’s a great interview process and can lean out the search for other canidates for his organizations.

I admire Pontiac for its generous offer and I would love to see these financial resources be donated to A Woman’s Place, the organization that fights against domestic violence. It’s so sad to see abused women with their children, after a month, returning to live with the abuser.
With a place that they will call home, the children and the mothers will start a new, happy and safe life. Many Thanks to Pontiac.

I would like to see small area agencies be the recipeint of Pontiac support this year.
Motivational Services, Inc. (moCo) a Kennebec Valley Agnecy serving people with severe and persistant Mental Illness, based in Augusta, Maine is my choice for an award this year. Mental illness is loosing its funding base faster than almost any other health related service in our state. Thank you Pontiac for considering us.

Way to go Pontiac. Donating two cars was very generous! My first choice charity, (I think there are many great ones out there), would have to be St. Jude’s childrens hospital. I am fortunate to have a healthy child, who sometimes drives me crazy doing what kids do, but at the end of the day I thank God he is strong and healthy, and I pray for the sick children and their families. This has been a great Apprentice, and I loved seeing Donlad Trumps children working with him!

I Love watching the Apprentice, it seems to get better each year. I have owned two new Pontiac’s and love them both.
The chartiy I believe that still needs our help is for the folks in the South that are still suffering the problems left behind by Catrina.

Thank you, to Pontiac. It is refreshing
in this day and age of corporate scandles, to
see a large corporation to give back to the
community. St. Jude’s hospital would be
my recommendation of a very worthwhile
charity. The children are our future and
those with health challenges need a “level
playing field.”

Salvation Army would be an excellent choice for a recipient of some of the donated funds! I am proud to say that I am a volunteer and any amount would benefit in so many ways for those that are in need.
My had my first Pontiac Bonneville for 10 years and loved it so much that I bought another. My son has a Pontiac Grand Am which he has had for 7 years. They are great cars!

For the third year in a row, the Anglecharitabletrust.com has had a two day benifit ride to raise money for children with cancer. We just finished a 140 mile ride and raised about $140,000. This money is split with the Hole in the Wall Camp. The wonderful work done by the organizers is AMAZING and every dollar goes to the children. Please help support these two wonderful groups.

My next car will be a PONTIAC! Thank you Mr. Trump, The Apprentice Show and especially to Pontiac for your generosity. I would love to see SERVICE ANIMALS FOR THE BLIND, HEARING IMPAIRED AND WHEELCHAIR BOUND benefit. It opens up so many more opportunity’s for the disabled to be independent.
Thank you.

My wife has multiple sclerosis, so of course I would love for you to find a cure through the multiple sclerosis foundation. The pain my wife and all those with this desease have to endure everyday on a daily basis. There are times I’ll give my wife a hug and she’ll cringe hopeing I don’t squeeze too hard from the pain in her body. Her arms and legs bruised from taking shots for the desease. Seeing her decay day by day, you couldn’t imagine how painful it is to have this happen to a loved one. Please Pontiac and N.B.C. help them find a cure. a beloved husband, Ken Peurasaari 4535 S.

Care and Share would be a strong candidate for a charitable donation from The Apprentice show and Pontiac. Care and Share is a shelter; a place to be family; a home. The nonprofit agency offers emergency and transitional housing in a small, northern Minnesota community that serves a huge, largely-rural area. In addition, through the soup kitchen, which operates 7 days a week, more than 25,000 meals were served in one recent year. Care and Share, as a temporary home, has restored hope for many by providing support and referrals for services while nurturing an environment that recognizes strengths and celebrates even small victories.

I am a proud owner of a Pontiac Bonneville. I am also a proud member of a small community and the Salvation Army. It is my hope that the Salvation Army will be considered for a donation from Pontiac and The Apprentice. The Salvation Army consistantly comes through for the communities when they are in need, large or small.

With Aloha I thank pontiac and the apprentice for your charity.I would very much like a charity donation
to go to The Kauai chapter of the american cancer society!Although we live in hawaii ,we are not immuned from cancer!What makes it more difficult is that our patients have to fly to Honolulu for treatment and that in and of it’self make it an expensive treatment for those that can not afford it!The american cancer society is the best!

To the Apprentice I say”Oh no!now what am I to do with my Monday’s, and looking forward to seeing the apprentice and the “let down” I feel at the end of each season’s finale!
Dear Pontiac: I have to tell you that to hear the name pontiac reminds me( and stirs old feelings) of my first kiss! (well, let’s just say sometime ago!), it was in a Pontiac GTO,so Pontiac will always have a special place in my heart!
I would sincerely appreciate funds donated to the American cancer society (kauai unit) because although we live in hawaii,no one is immuned from cancer and the people on our island have to fly to Honolulu for treatment ,at great expense,that most can not afford. The american cancer society pays for this, and many other areas in helping our people get the treatment that saves lives. Mahalo,Liz Olson

it looks Pontiac like they changed their approach a bit to prevent this from happening (again):
