In the heat of August, the KC Pioneers turned up the charm and the hoses for our annual Car Wash Fundraiser, held in the back parking lot of Missie B’s. Leather-clad volunteers scrubbed, sprayed, and served up suds with a smile—all to raise funds for local LGBTQIA+ charities. With music pumping, gear gleaming, and plenty of playful banter, the event blended community care with cheeky fun. Guests rolled through for a wash, stayed for the vibes, and left knowing they’d supported a cause that shines just as bright as their freshly cleaned rides.
