Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Central Florida car enthusiasts have a special reason to head to Kissimmee this Labor Day weekend. A community car and truck show is bringing together impressive vehicles, live entertainment and a cause that deserves attention.

On Saturday, September 5, beginning at 2:00 p.m., Promenade at Sunset Walk will host the One Purse Charity Car & Truck Show, an afternoon dedicated to raising funds and awareness for women rebuilding their lives after domestic abuse and trafficking.

The event is being presented in partnership with Central Florida Mopar Mafia and One Purse, a nonprofit organization that helps women move toward greater independence through employment and educational opportunities.

For visitors looking for something different to do around Orlando over the holiday weekend, this is an opportunity to enjoy a local event while supporting an important Central Florida organization.

One Purse Charity Car & Truck Show

Cars, Trucks and a Cause at Sunset Walk

Car shows have a way of bringing people together. Whether you’re interested in customized cars, powerful trucks or simply enjoy seeing what local automotive enthusiasts have created, there is usually something worth stopping to admire.

This particular show adds another dimension to the experience.

Spectator admission is free, making it easy for families, visitors and Central Florida residents to stop by and enjoy the festivities.

Those who want to enter a vehicle in the show can participate for a $30 entry fee, with 100% of those proceeds benefiting One Purse.

Visitors can find additional event information and registration details on the official One Purse Charity Car & Truck Show Eventbrite page.

Bring a Pre-Loved Purse and Make a Difference

One of the easiest ways visitors can participate in the charitable side of the event doesn’t involve entering a car at all.

One Purse will be collecting pre-loved brand-name purses during the show.

Rather than leaving a handbag tucked away in the back of a closet, guests can donate qualifying purses and help give them a new purpose. These donated handbags help fuel One Purse’s employment program, which is designed to provide opportunities for women rebuilding their lives after domestic abuse and trafficking.

Revenue generated through the organization’s efforts goes back into programs providing educational and employment opportunities.

You can learn more about the organization, its programs and ways to support its work by visiting One Purse.

More Than a Traditional Car Show

While the vehicles will naturally be a major attraction, the afternoon includes plenty more to keep visitors entertained.

Guests can look forward to an award show, 50/50 cash raffle, street performances and live music throughout the event.

That combination makes the One Purse Charity Car & Truck Show an easy addition to a Saturday afternoon or evening at Sunset Walk. Visitors can check out the cars, listen to live entertainment and spend some time exploring the surrounding restaurants, shops and attractions.

It is also a chance for visitors who may not have previously heard of One Purse to discover the work the organization is doing in the community.

A Meaningful Way to Spend Labor Day Weekend in Orlando

Labor Day weekend in the Orlando area usually comes with plenty of choices. Theme parks, attractions, restaurants and special events will all be competing for attention.

Sometimes, however, one of the most memorable experiences can be a smaller community event with a meaningful purpose behind it.

The One Purse Charity Car & Truck Show gives Central Florida residents and Orlando-area visitors an opportunity to enjoy an afternoon out without paying for spectator admission, while also supporting an organization working directly with women who are reclaiming their independence.

Even visitors who aren’t serious car enthusiasts can participate. Bring a purse to donate, purchase a raffle ticket, enjoy the entertainment or simply spend some time learning more about the organization.

Every contribution helps extend the impact beyond the car show itself.
