Mark your calendars for Saturday, August 3 and join us from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Food Bank RGV in Pharr, located at 724 N Cage Blvd., for an evening full of cool cars, delicious food, and community! We are currently car show participants to make this year's car show our most memorable one yet!

The entry fee to participate as a vendor or exhibitor is simply a donation of school supplies!

A commitment of just $1 a day can make a huge impact in the lives of these children. Give today: https://lnkd.in/gHMWpkyi
