August 2026 Community Events

August 12th – 14th – Whaley Children’s Center CARS 108 Roof Sit
Whaley Children’s Center is partnering with The Cars Morning Drive with Jeremy Fenech for an exciting fundraiser to benefit the children in their care. From August 12-14, 2026, the team will take on the challenge of spending three days on the roof of the McDonald’s across from Grand Blanc High School to raise awareness and funds for the 48 foster children living at the Center.
Your support is essential in providing these children with the safe, loving home they deserve. Every dollar raised will directly support their well-being, helping create a nurturing environment where they can grow, learn, and heal.
