Universal Cares’ third annual Cars, Condos & Cares Fundraiser was held Wednesday evening, Oct. 7, at Motor District Garage Condos, 1516 W. Tournament Trail, Westfield. Universal Cares told The Reporter that’s how they prefer to help: hands on, doing the actual work, one family at a time.

In addition to several fine automobiles, music from Natalie Marque, a dinner from Nameless Catering, and décor by Wasson Nursery in Fishers, guests enjoyed several raffles and a silent auction. All money was raised to benefit Bows & Blessings, a program from Universal Cares to ensure families in need can have a wonderful Christmas celebration.
