THE INAUGURAL SHOW
In May 2022, we hosted our 1st ever car show. The show was held at Crossroads Chrisitan Church in Corona, California. this happened directly across the street from the Corona Relay at Santana Park. for our 1st show, we brought in 50 vehicles, 8 vendors, and 3 food trucks. generating close to $4000, this was considered a success. this all couldn't have happened without all the hours spent organizing with help from our volunteers. THANK YOU!
Cruising for a Cause is an annual event coming up on its third year. The car show is part of the American Cancer Society and Relay for Life Corona. It came about after our mom, Sandra Ledesma passed away from breast cancer in January of 2021. Growing up, our family has always enjoyed gathering at car shows. This is our way to bring something my mother enjoyed with something that means so much to us. In our first 2 years, we have raised over $10,000 for the American Cancer Society. This money goes towards research, room and board for patients, and transportation to appointments. Each year we thrive on surpassing the previous years results.
The Reason
In August of 2018, our mom, grandma, sister, aunt, daughter, Sandra Ledesma was diagnosed with breast cancer. This was devastating news. We started our Relay team Her Fight Is Our Fight in support of her. She encountered many setbacks which ultimately took her from us in early 2021. We decided we wanted to bring more attention to the relay and the car show came about. Our family has always been involved in classic cars and shows. What a better way to celebrate life and bring awareness?
