Beacon Bay Auto Washes have been a part of the Orange County community since 1965 and have participated in many fund raising events to benefit local organizations, schools and charities. This year will be no different.

In November 2002, Beacon Bay Enterprises started working with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. In conjunction with Wash U.S.A., Beacon Bay Auto Washes made contributions totalling $4,300 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The fundraiser was such a success that Beacon Bay has decided to sponsor another.

On Saturday May 22nc, 2004, Beacon Bay will donate $1.00 for every car washed at each of their 12 Orange County locations. The donation will benefit the local chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants the wishes of children with life-threatening illness to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. It is the largest wish-granting charity in the world, with 79 chapters in the United States and it's territories and 23 international affiliates spanning five continents.
