THANK YOU FOR JOINING US!
Parade Lap Charity Driving Event & Car Show
Supporting Our Community’s Children
Fueled by motorsports enthusiasm and a charitable engine, Houston’s car club and racing communities came together to raise funds and awareness to address child abuse in Harris and surrounding counties.
The inaugural “Drive For Kids” event, title sponsored by Mercedes-Benz of Sugar Land in partnership with MSR Houston Charities 501(c)(3) hosted and offered registration for up to 400 cars to participate in charitable fundraising parade laps, a VIP car exhibition and the opportunity to gather with sponsor vendors, Houston area celebrities and fellow motorsports enthusiasts in support of two local children’s charities: Child Advocates and Arms Wide Adoption Services. Each of these charities shared the proceeds from this event to support their ongoing missions.
Ways to Support
PARADE LAP FUNDRAISING
Join us by exhibiting your car and driving 3 parade laps at MSR Houston!
Help us fundraise by having your friends, family and coworkers sponsor you via a “go fund me” type donation and help you earn an award at the same time! Register online today to start notifying your sponsors about the event and your need for their support.
Super Car Exhibition
Have a super cool car and you want a VIP parking spot under the tent? Register to show your super car (or your daily driver) at the event in the VIP parking area for a small added donation.
Car Club Fundraising
The event is also set to allow car clubs and make clubs to raise funds as a team. The top fundraising car brand chapter will receive the Drive For Kids Pole Position Trophy acknowledging the club’s performance for most funds raised by the brand.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to space considerations, only registered cars will be allowed on the MSR premises the day of the event. Registered participants are welcome to bring an additional guest in their car to attend the event with the registered participant.
