Event director Mark Brett MBE said: "This week we had our cheque presentation for 20 organisations that will be benefiting from our fundraising efforts.
"We would like to say thank you to everyone who took part, attended and volunteered at this year's Wallingford Vehicle Rally and Parade.
"It was great day and made even better because we had amazing sunshine.
"Wallingford performs and achieves above and beyond however it cannot be done without a great volunteer community we have."
Mr Brett highlighted the local sponsors who had helped make day such a success: Masterfloors, CVP Oxford, James Gesner Estate Agents, Dodo Mat, Wrightune, Moox Creative Design JLP Building Services and Haynes Car Care Centre.
Mr Brett said he looked forward to seeing crowds returning with an array of vehicles next year - with tickets set to go on stage in February 2025 ahead of the rally date which is yet to be confirmed.
The event on May 12 drew hundreds to the town with child bereavement charity SeeSaw one of the major beneficiaries of the day - aided by the work of Sporting Bears Motor Club who raised money on the day through dream rides in luxury cars for attendees.
