Come get your car washed today!

One of our SOS seniors, Julian Mathews, started a Mobile Auto Detailing business a couple of years ago to help pay for his SOS Spain trip. His business has grown! He is now generously offering to pay his success forward by hosting a car wash, having covered all operating costs as a donation. Money raised will help students pay for their trips! Thanks to Flames 🔥 Restaurant for generously hosting this event.
