Cars of Palestine, Inc. is a family-oriented, non-profit organization that participates in local parades several times each year, travels to other communities for parades and shows, hosts other car clubs in our state who visit Palestine, and gives assistance to members and non-members alike in finding parts – and sometimes that special auto in someone’s memory. Cars of Palestine is a member of the Texas Vehicle Club Council and the Palestine Chamber of Commerce.
Who We Are
Cars of Palestine was organized in 1986 in Palestine, Texas, located in beautiful East Texas, to provide an opportunity for local car enthusiasts to meet, socialize and maintain the spirit of good fellowship. We encourage the use of these special interest autos in activities which promote our community; however car ownership is not a requirement for membership.
Activities
Bringing Change
Annual Car Show
Scholarships
Cars of Palestine annually hosts the “Cars of Palestine People’s Choice Car Show”, held in conjunction with the opening weekend of Palestine’s Annual Dogwood Trails festival. This is a premier state wide show that attracts 75 to 200 auto enthusiasts from across the state each year often spending the weekend in Palestine. The proceeds from the car show fund our annual high school scholarships as well as donations to other service projects each year.
Community Outreach
Helping The Community
With this initiative, our goal is to promote great opportunities for those in need. In the fall of each year, the club determines how much extra money is left from money raised by the car show and it is donated to community organizations such as the Stock Pot, Women's Shelters, Food Pantries, Meals on Wheels, children's homes, and more.
Stuff the Trunk Food & Toy Drive
Reinforcing our Commitment
The club holds an annual toy and food drive each fall that gathers food and toys for needy families who would go without during the holiday season. Sometimes these collected items are donated to a church food/toy drive and other times we find ways to donate directly to families in need.
