THE PERFECT GIFT: DONATE  IN LIEU OF A GIFT-  WE"LL SEND THE HONOR CARD! 
We will send your designated “giftee” a professionally printed honor card stating that a monetary gift was made by you in their honor . The card also explains that the donation will be used to improve the life of someone less fortunate and to help a fellow human find comfort and hope in your name. This is a perfect gift for someone who already has everything.  CALL US TODAY AT:   (714) 547-4073 ... or ... (714) 543-8933 
 
You can donate here online, or make a check out to “SWCC” and mail it to: SWCC, 1601 West 2nd Street, Santa Ana, CA 92703.
