AutoCon Events in conjunction with Purist Group will host the Third Annual Winter Drive on Saturday, December 5th, 2015 at the Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, CA. The main objective is to raise donations for a number of charity organizations within the community as well as provide aid to children of the less fortunate. The event will feature hundreds of the most unique cars in the world, coffee, donuts and pastries (courtesy of Scion), food trucks, refreshments, contests/raffles and giveaways.
Last year, collectively as a group, we were able to raise over $250,000+ worth of toys to be donated to local charities and also make a difference in the disadvantaged lives of many young children worldwide. This year, we want to continue to spread the love of giving for a better tomorrow. We are commited to helping the children of tomorrow to become confident, responsible and productive young adults of society.
