Wash USA was started in the aftermath of 9/11 by a group of carwash professionals who felt compelled as members of an industry to do something good in the wake of that tragedy. Its first year saw a contribution made to the Red Cross. Each year following has raised money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of America.
Wash USA continues to be run by a group of carwash operators and suppliers who volunteer hundreds of hours to this cause. This year we’ve added several “Regional Directors” around the country (again, carwash professionals) to help us spread the word and increase the number of participants.
