Rides For Relief Live Streamed Pin Up Contest Package

We are so excited to bring you our altered version of Rides For Relief.

Rides for Relief is a car show and fundraiser run BY women, FOR women and families in crisis. 

Founded in 2018 by Keri & Tracy, Rides For Relief is a venue to help generate awareness and revenue for local domestic abuse support charities. The 2018 inaugural event came together in two months and raised $2,500 for YWCA Calgary. The 2019 show raised over $3,500 for Airdrie P.O.W.E.R. women's shelter.

Due to the regulations surrounding gathering sizes and events, this year the physical car show has been cancelled. We are pivoting to an online event to continue raising the integral funds through a unique live stream of Pin Up Contest and Rockabilly Concert.

Hosting one of the largest pin up contests in Alberta, the show is a gathering of not only car minded people, but pin ups and vintage lovers alike. The gathering is for giving back and spreading awareness, not just for looking good.

This event isn’t closed to only Calgary and Alberta locals, if you can make it to Calgary for the event sign up! We just need your commitment to the event.

  • Over $5,500 raised for local shelters
