- **Event Name**: HopeDriven's HeRow Expo 6 Benefit Car / Truck / Powersports Show
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 23 May, 2026 at 04:00 pm – Sat, 23 May, 2026 at 09:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: HopeDriven - a 501c3 Non-Profit Organization based out of Roanoke, VA - will be hosting our 6th-annual HeRow Expo on Saturday May 23rd from 4:00 to 9:00 PM at the Berglund Ford / Mazda Dealership in Salem, Virginia.

HeRow Expo is a car, truck, and powersports show that is hosted annually in the honor of Rowan Price, the child that we sponsored during our very first event in 2019 that passed away due to leukemia. Each year, the Price family selects the child/family that we will sponsor for this event to honor Rowan, where all proceeds will be donated to the child/family to assist with all costs associated with their life-threatening illness / injury.

For this event, HopeDriven has selected Adrian Barahona, an energetic 4-year old boy full of love, laughter, and energy that was diagnosed with AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia) in January of 2025. After overcoming complications from treatment, Adrian was finally sent home in October of 2025. 

Unfortunately, in March of 2026, Adrian relapsed with AML and has started intensive salvage chemotherapy in hopes of achieving remission again. The plan is to achieve remission and then get him a stem cell transplant.

Adrian and his family are from Danville, VA but have been spending most of their time in Roanoke as he has gone through his treatment protocols. Once stem cells have been transplanted, they will begin traveling to Richmond, VA once a month.

To date, HopeDriven has been able to sponsor 5 children/families and has raised north of $36,000 since the start of our annual spring show, HeRow Expo.

For this event - ALL vehicle types are welcome and it is only a $10 minimum donation (per vehicle) to enter. ALL money raised from the entry fees, raffles, 50/50, and donations goes directly towards the fundraiser for Adrian and his family for medical costs and everything associated with his treatment.

We are actively signing up vendors / food trucks / sponsors for this, so if you have any interest, please reach out to us directly.
