Paragould, AR – JonesboroRightNow.com – A nonprofit is hosting its second annual car show in Paragould, aiming to benefit foster children, with a few changes this time around.

The Faith, Hope, Love Drop-In Center is hosting the Fast Lanes, Bright Futures Car Show, inviting the community to view all sorts of cars, from classics to hot rods to muscle cars and more. Entry, car, and vendor fees will go toward the nonprofit, which helps kids in foster care and those who are about to age out of the program in Northeast Arkansas.

This year’s show features a touch-a-truck event, where participants can touch and learn about the vehicles. It will also have food and craft vendors, a raffle, a silent auction, inflatables, and more.

“It draws families closer, and that’s what I love to see. I love families coming out for community events and engaging with that,” said Elizabeth Love, founder and CEO of the Faith, Hope, Love Drop-In Center. “I just wanted to bring the community together, and I wanted to bring awareness to foster kids.”

Love will also share her experience as a foster child.
