West Coast Cash has been active in serving the needs of the community from day one and has supported numerous
worthwhile community causes. West Coast Cash has also sponsored many local schools, thereby helping students
reach their dreams and goals throughout the past three years. Below is an ongoing list of what West Coast Cash has
given back to the people in the communities in which we serve:
Muscular Dystrophy Association 2010
West Coast Cash participates annually in the MDA Shamrocks
Against Dystrophy fundraiser and raised enough money to send 31 children to Summer Camp in 2010. We would like to thank our staff and
customers alike for their generous donations towards this cause.
Lee National Denim Day ®
Lee National Denim Day®, the world's largest single-day fundraiser for breast cancer, is not just about raising funds
- it's about raising awareness. For the fifth consecutive year, the Lee Company urged businesses and organizations to
participate in Lee National Denim Day by allowing employees to wear denim to work in exchange for a $5 donation to
the Womens Cancer Programs of EIF, a nonprofit organization dedicated to eradicating breast cancer. In twelve years, Lee National
Denim Day has raised over $70 million for breast cancer research, education, screening and treatment. On Friday,
October 5, 2007, West Coast Cash employees raised more than $800 of the $5 million that was raised for the
Womens Cancer Programs of EIF. Through great efforts of thousands of people and businesses, Lee National
Denim Day® was a great success.
This just proves that every little bit makes a huge difference. Congratulations to all the West Coast Cash employees
and our wonderful customers for participating in this great cause!
Watch out, we're coming back even stronger this year. To register your company or organization for participation call

National Multiple Sclerosis Society - MS Walk 2001
West Coast Cash was a Sponsor in the 12th Annual MS Walk 2001, which was held on Saturday March 31, 2001 in
Bakersfield, California. In addition to being a Community Walk Sponsor, employees at West Coast Cash participated
in the walk. We even had some employees make t-shirts with our logo to show the public that West Coast Cash cares
about Multiple Sclerosis. Additionally to that, West Coast Cash employees and customers raised over $1200.00 for the
M.S. Society company-wide in only one week. Wow! We thank everyone that was involved and hope to have greater
success next year!

Laborers of the Harvest - Food Drive
Laborers of the Harvest is an organization in Taft, California that provides food and clothing for individuals and families
that are less fortunate in their community. On December 10, 2000, we rented the Taft Fox Theatre and gave away free
tickets to a family movie. But there was a catch: each person had to bring in one canned food item as admission to the
theatre. The results were amazing. We had so much food donated by local residents, that we required a pick-up truck
to haul it all away. Again, through the great efforts of our staff in Taft, and the local community, we helped fight hunger
during the Holiday Season. Our Involvement in Local Schools and Organizations
