Cars for a Cure raises $50,000 for cancer research

Community By Linda Trischitta, Editor Thursday, December 19, 2024

The popular Miami Lakes Cars for a Cure free annual auto show held on Main Street continues to top itself by increasing donations that fund pediatric cancer research at the UM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.

The 2024 show raised $50,000, the Alonso family said. They presented a check to the university on Nov. 22 at Chela’s Cocteleria.

That evening was when they kicked-off the 2025 auto show that will be held once more on Main Street in Miami Lakes, on Sunday, April 5. 

As at past events, there will be tickets sold for a beer garden, and more than 250 vehicles on display.  For more information go to: MLCarsforaCure.com.
