Just sent in by the office of Terry Gangon:

West Seattle is having a community car wash benefiting the West Seattle Food Bank and Haiti through World Vision. The car wash will take place on Friday, June 25th between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Tickets are being presold for $10 each; you can purchase a ticket and get your car washed at Keller Williams Realty at 4452 California Ave SW; John L Scott Realty at 5242 California Ave SW and State Farm Insurance at 4727 44th Ave SW. Tickets may also be purchased at both Windermere locations, West Seattle Realty and Prudential Northwest Realty in Jefferson Square.

This idea was spawned by need! For just $1000 our local food bank can provide 300 bags of groceries delivered to the homebound elderly and disabled members of our community. The demand in our community for food has gone up during the recession. Some of you may have seen the report on Haiti that Frontline did last week on Public TV. The circumstances that millions are facing with respect to housing, food and clean water is mind numbing. In one tent city alone, there was only one bathroom available for every 1000 people. Our goal is to raise $2000 each for our community food bank and Haiti.

This idea started with the real estate brokers and agents in West Seattle, but has grown to include three locations for the car wash and there are many more sponsoring businesses and service groups behind it. Special thanks to Rich Bianchi and Jim Sansburn for making their locations available to wash cars and Bruce Davis of True Value Hardware for donating buckets and car washing mitts, a hose, etc.; plus buying the first 10 tickets! Also, a special thanks to the West Seattle Cheer Team for volunteering to wash cars.

There are three ways to help:

1. Buy lots of tickets or just one.
2. Call the businesses hosting the car wash to volunteer to help wash all those cars.
3. Bring non-perishable food to drop off at any of the three car wash locations.
