Classic Cars For The Cure

Classic Cars for the Cure was established following the death of the founders’ relative, Lawanda Nute, from a rare form of breast cancer. The family rallied together to help provide emotional and practical support for their loved one during her time of need.  The family learned when taking Lawanda to treatments that there were others with cancer who did not have the kind of support needed to provide a comfortable quality of life throughout their own illness. The resources, time and commitment it takes to care for those who are battling cancer are not available to everyone, and those family members who are able to provide that support often need help.  The Founders wanted to ensure they were providing resources and hope for people that were battling cancer, and assisting their caretakers by lifting some of the burden from them as well. Classic Cars for the Cure combines the interest in classic cars with a desire to help those fighting cancer.

Every year Classic Cars for the Cure host several Car Shows to help raise money for the organization, and at the end of the year there is a combined Car Show and Toy Drive where the toys are donated to Cook Children's in Fort Worth, or other local hospitals that express a need. We ensure we are helping all ages and cancer stages. 

This year we are having our first 5K Walk and Run, where we will honor loved ones we have lost- including our beloved Lawanda Nute, celebrate survivors, and support the people currently fighting cancer. We want to ensure that people are educated on the resources that are available to them when they are fighting this horrific disease, and know what type of support they have in Classic Cars for the Cure. Plus we would not be Classic Cars for the Cure without having some type of car element, so we are having a car display during the 5K event.
