The group decided to work with Make A Wish Foundation, an organization that grants wishes to children with life threatening illnesses. The club's upcoming show is part of the new "Make Enrique's Wish Come True" project, presented by the club, the Make a Wish Foundation of Central and South Texas and the City of Laredo's Mayor, Raul G. Salinas.
According to a news release by club president Alex Medina, "Enrique Collazo is a 5-year-old boy who is suffering from Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia. Enrique and his family joined our club shortly after we had made our decision to have our car show benefit the Make A Wish Foundation. Enrique's one heartfelt wish is to go to Disney World, and with your help, we can make his wish come true."
The "Making Enrique's Wish Come True" Benefit Car Show will be held at the Civic Center of Laredo from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, July 20, 2008. It will be an indoor/outdoor venue.
