Big Slim offers free car show tickets for food bank volunteers

Houston residents can secure free admission to a major car culture festival by working a three-hour shift at a local food bank next month. The volunteer event, titled Serve With Slim, is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 12, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Participants will earn one ticket to the King of Cars Custom Car Show & Culture Fest, which takes place on Nov. 22 at Reliant Park.

Volunteers will work inside the Houston Food Bank warehouse during the shift. Their tasks include sorting, preparing, and packaging donated items for distribution to families in the community. Big Slim, a musician who supports local initiatives, will make a special appearance at the warehouse during the event.

The initiative is a partnership between 97.9 The Box and the Houston Food Bank. The car show festival is set to celebrate Houston’s automotive history, music, and community. It is described as one of the city’s anticipated events for November.

Volunteer spots are limited for this specific shift. Advance registration is required for all participants. Walk-ins will not be accepted. Interested individuals can register through the Serve With Slim registration page on the Houston Food Bank website.

The food bank uses the donated items to address hunger in the area. The event allows participants to contribute labor while receiving a perk that would otherwise require a separate ticket purchase for the Nov. 22 festival.
