"Big Bad" reports from the donation ceremony at Fix Auto in Santee, where in a joint effort from Farmers Insurance and Fix Auto, a insurance loss for one person was turned into a dream come true for a local Marine and his family.

A Nissan Cube was actually donated to Operation Homefront by Farmers Insurance, when it was classified as a complete loss. However, the wonderful folks over at Fix Auto, right here in Santee, saw the possibility to bring the car back to life so that a deserving family of a wounded Marine could have a dependable vehicle.

The recipient, Lance Corporal Joshua Jenkins, was there to accept the car with his wife Megan and daughter Addison.
