Pacific Cascade Mustang Club is proud to support our long time beneficiary, Pediatric Interim Care Center, with proceeds from our annual Car Show and Christmas Auction, as well as a fundraising team for PICC’s annual Walk for the Babies.
Located in Kent, Washington, Pediatric Interim Care Center (PICC) is the only 24-hour care center serving drug-exposed infants throughout Washington State. More than 12,000 infants born in Washington State each year have been prenatally exposed to illicit drugs. Many of these little ones suffer serious effects and need the help that only PICC provides.
PICC is a one-of-a-kind, model program that provides specialized, 24-hour medical monitoring and nursing care to fill the gap between hospital and home for infants recovering from prenatal drug exposures or other medical difficulties. PICC’s pioneering program also facilitates visitation for families, provides caregiver training, follows the babies after they leave, and offers a range of community outreach and education services.
Founded in 1990, PICC’s model program has given more than 3,200 infants a safe and healthy start in life.

We are also proud to support the Kent Firefighters Foundation Toys for Joy program with funds raised from our annual Christmas Party & Auction. In partnership with Bowen Scarff Ford, the funds we raise together help provide toys, food, clothing and other donated goods and services to children and their families in Covington, Kent, SeaTac and surrounding areas.
Pacific Cascade Mustang Club also supports future automotive technicians and enthusiasts with scholarships to the Ford ASSET program through Renton Technical College. Ford ASSET — short for Automotive Student Service Educational Training – is an intensive program that trains students to work as professional automotive technicians. Students learn to work on Ford products in ASE-certified centers. Training includes instruction on engines, fuel management, electronics, transmission/transaxles, brake systems, and air conditioning. Students are sponsored by an authorized Ford or Lincoln dealership, where they spend part of their training. Renton Technical College is the only school in Washington state offering this program.
Other beneficiaries of our annual charitable events include Northwest Harvest, Birthday Dreams, Wounded Warrior Project, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and American Heart Association.
