San Diego Car Donation Helping Make-A-Wish Kids

San Diego Car Donation Benefits Make-A-Wish Kids Dealing With Critical Illness

San Diego, CA is a wonderful place to be a kid, with the many beaches along San Diego’s 70 miles of coastline, the San Diego Zoo, Navy Pier, and many museums and parks. However, some San Diego children can’t enjoy all that this beautiful area has to offer if they are battling a critical illness. Luckily, there is a way for you to help provide life-changing experiences for these children and all it takes is your vehicle donation.
