You Can Help Get a House for Charity
Three friends in business unite with local San Diego Charity, to help Homeless Teens and trade stuff until we get a House for Charity!
How Can You Get Involved
Play a part in this important effort to support homeless teens and contribute to their success and offer support by following the trade on Facebook or this site.
How Does it Work?
The trade will begin with an item from Toussaint Academy San Diego the chosen charity that helps homeless teens and Southern Californians will have the ability to show their support by trading this item for a more valuable item—until the Charity gets a house! The Charity will then have the choice to use the home to benefit teens by using it or sell it to help pay for their programs.
To help these homeless teens, we need you to MAKE A TRADE! You simply make your bid and if it’s accepted, you play a part in doing a great thing to help the Charity and these amazing teens.
