Kevin is now living in a care facility in S uwanee, Georgia that we recently helped him move into. We’re in the process of getting him a hospital bed because he keeps falling out of the regular bed in the facility. We’ve also reconnected him with Emo ry to get his appointments back on track and we’re providing transpo rtation to and from those appointments.  Our goal is to get him into a support group to help stave off the depression that he’s been goin g through. He’s a young man now about 60 years-old, and sadly he’s been facing some tough challenges rather quickly, especially due to h is growing lack of mobility. Rather than any type of fundraiser, we’ re interested in creating a real ‘heart-raiser’ for Kevin – comb ining another great turnout with Cars and Camaraderie® and sharing in the holiday spirit.  Since Kevin can no longer attend car events, or even readily leave his facility much these days, we’re hopeful to b ring the car show to him, and provide some holiday cheer.  With your involvement, we can make the upcoming holiday season just a bit more o ptimistic as together, we can share our own joy and passion with cars. We’ve gained permission to bring up to 30 cars to Antebellum Senior Living, where spaces will be held for us – and we’d love to have a variety of cars and their owners attend – in fact, the showing wou ld be open to others at the facility to enjoy as well – we’re set for SUNDAY, DECEMBER 15 th at 3pm – and just need you to please sign up - https://www.drivetowardacure.org/rsvp/kevin2024 (Due to limited space ability, participation will be on a first-come basis, so please register soon!) Hoping you’ll join the group – bring your favorite ride and share your presence for the holidays…. We look forward to your registration.
