Our Mission
Cruzin’ for Life was started by a group of friends in the Santa Maria Valley who had been affected by cancer by their friends who were inflicted by it and felt like they had to help in some way. They got together with a love for cars, a love for community, and compassion for people suffering through poor health or financial burdens. As a community, we ask that local businesses support this important car show, dinner and auction. This popular fundraiser has established itself in our community as a major source of funding for our community.
