We had the honor of bringing in the funds raised at the 3rd Annual Car show to the animal shelter on Mt. Vernon. Thanks to everyone’s contributions we were able to donate $4,000. Thank you again for everyone’s support!!! 💜

We were honored to be a part of the Steve Downs Melanoma Foundation Inc Car Show back in May and are so thankful to have been gifted this check today in the amount of $4000. This money raised at the event will go directly towards the animals here at the shelter.

It’s starting to heat up in Bakersfield and it’s the perfect time to remind everyone to protect your skin!!! Melanoma is often called "the most serious skin cancer" because it has a tendency to spread. Melanoma can develop within a mole that you already have on your skin or appear suddenly as a dark spot on the skin that looks different from the rest.

Today we had the privilege of bringing a check for $2,000 to the Bakersfield SPCA which will go towards purchasing kurinda beds for the kennels. They currently only had a few kennels with the beds out of all the kennels they have. This will get the dogs up off the ground and keep them dry and warm. This is all thanks to everyone who contributed to our 2022 car show. I know this would make my Dads heart happy trying to help these poor babies that don’t have a home. It was cool to see one of the employees wearing our shirt when they had no idea we were coming. Thank you again to everyone who registered or donated to the foundation to make this possible!!! 🖤🐶

All fun aside from the car show - I just want to remind everyone that Comprehensive Blood and Cancer Center (CBCC)was out at the show offering free skin check ups! You can call the dermatology department directly at (661)616-1671. It’s so important to catch skin cancer early, it just takes about an hour out of your day! 🖤
