Mike’s Carwash raised more than $69,000 Big Brothers Big Sisters through its 12th annual “Get a Wash, Give a Future” fundraiser on May 8. All 29 Mike’s locations in Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky donated half the proceeds from every Ultimate and Works wash sold to youth mentoring programs across seven local chapters of Big Brothers Big Sisters.
“This is our 12th consecutive year to team up with Big Brothers Big Sisters, and it’s always a very special event for everyone at Mike’s,” said Mike Dahm, President of Mike’s Carwash. “Get a Wash, Give a Future has always been close to our hearts. It’s both thrilling and gratifying to see how our customers responded to support this truly wonderful organization.”
For more than 100 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters has been empowering children to succeed through mentorship programs. They are proof that caring role models really do make a difference. According to national research, Little Brothers and Sisters are 46% less likely to begin using illegal drugs, 27% less likely to begin using alcohol and 52% less likely to skip school.
Founded in Fort Wayne, Ind., in 1948, Mike’s Carwash is headquartered in Loveland, Ohio. Mike’s has 29 locations in Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky.
