Classic car enthusiasts and Jaguar aficionados are invited to join Cool Cars for Kids, Inc.(CCfK) in partnership with The Delaware Valley Jaguar Club in a spectacular celebration of automotive heritage at the 7th annual Philadelphia Concours d’Elegance on Sunday, June 23. This premier fundraising event, to be held at the famed Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum, promises a family-friendly day filled with elegance, engineering marvels, and the timeless allure of Jaguar, the British luxury car brand founded in 1922.

The Philadelphia Concours benefits the mission of Cool Cars for Kids by raising money to support local and national charities, including The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, to deliver care and provide support to children and families who struggle with the medical complexities associated with genetic conditions.

Event Highlights:
