Toyota is celebrating ten years of manufacturing at its Baja California plant by donating $10,000 and three Toyota Tacoma trucks, the Japanese automaker announced today.
The cash donation will benefit the “Boys and Girls Club of Tecate”, while the trucks will be donated to three of Toyota’s local nonprofit partners - the Red Cross in Tijuana, the Fire Brigade in Tijuana and the Children’s Foundation in Tecate.
