Keffer Hyundai's 2010 Hope on Wheels Tour is coming to Levine Children's Hospital at Carolina Medical Center on Thursday, August 12, 2010. The ceremonies begin at 10:00 am.
The Hope on Wheels Tour is the joint effort of Hyundai dealers across the country to raise awareness about childhood cancer and celebrate the lives of the courageous children battling the disease. This summer, the Hope on Wheels Tour will travel to 42 children's hospitals across the country and donate more than $2 million to support further training and research for doctors involved in childhood cancer research. Hyundai Hope on Wheels designates the medical professionals supported by these donations as Hyundai Scholars.
Moreover, this 2010 Tour will also include a Handprint Ceremonies for childhood cancer patients, both past and present, at Levine Children's Hospital where they will be receiving donations. The symbol of the Hope on Wheels Tour is a white Hyundai Santa Fe covered with colorful handprints representing childhood cancer patients from all over the country. The Handprint Ceremony rejoices the courage of childhood cancer patients by capturing their colorful handprints on the white Santa Fe; herein children attending the ceremony are asked to lend a hand and place their own handprints on the car to commemorate their battle with cancer.
The reason as to why handprints has been chosen is because there's nothing more personal than a handprint - and the goal of the Hope on Wheels Tour is to share the personal triumphs of each of these children with other childhood cancer patients and their families across the country. Jim Keffer from Keffer Hyundai will be the Guest Speaker on Thursday, and is a proud support of this ceremonious event at Levine Children's Hospital!
