Everyone at San Diego Self Storage is proud to embark on the third year of our Community Giving Project, carrying on a tradition of giving back to San Diego. We love this project! San Diego Self Storage facilities span San Diego County from Temecula to Otay Mesa. We wanted to find a way for all 17 of our locations to develop meaningful ties to their local communities. We’ve given each site $500, which they may contribute to any organization they see fit. We’ve contributed to a variety of philanthropies, with charities benefiting children and animals at the top of the list. Our teams have also chosen to help fight cancer, contribute to local history and support humanitarian efforts. 

The team at Butterfield Ranch Self Storage, led by the Facility Manager, Cristhian Gironas, has been instrumental in helping to grow the Temecula Youth Baseball Champions League. Cristhian has been a coach and volunteer, as well as a visionary in the development of this truly special baseball league. The Champions League was created to allow children with physical and mental disabilities the chance to share in America’s past time, baseball. The league began with only 14 kids, seven players per team and 2 coaches or volunteers to help fill the gaps in the outfield.

Thanks to the donations from Butterfield Ranch Self Storage and other sponsors, the league grew year by year and the costs have been kept relatively low for parents. TYB Champions League enjoys the largest group of children playing this year with over 90 kids signed up.

Cristhian wanted to voice his sincere thanks and said, “We’ve received support from Murrieta Mesa High School, Chaparral High School and Great Oak High School (the rep is my little brother Matthew who has come out since the beginning to help volunteer at our TYB Champions League events). We have worked with Amy Minniear, JP Raineri, Kevin Rochford and Dawn Madera, to name a few, who have been here since the beginning of the league and supported it fully. I am happy to say thanks to San Diego Self Storage and Butterfield Ranch Self Storage for allowing us to make yearly donations to a charity group which is making a true difference in the community.”
