Event Description
What started, in 2013, as just a bunch of nice people with cool cars coming together to show their rides to a sick little boy, has grown into an organized showcase in multiple communities, attracting hundreds of cars, and is the namesake of the foundation. Eli’s Block Party is the cornerstone of fundraising for the foundation and is designed as an exciting way to involve others. Any group or collection of individuals can apply to host an Eli’s Block Party in their community and be a part of the foundation’s mission. The car shows are judged, with both monetary and trophy awards, and include music, food, and vendors. Also, if possible, each show features a Headlight Hero, a local cancer kid in the community. Take advantage of opportunities to sponsor, participate, and even host a show, and help Eli’s Block Party fight childhood cancer with Muscle and Style.
