Last Friday (January 10, 2026) at the Loveland Auto Auction, the Colorado Independent Auto Dealers Association (CIADA) presented a generous $5,000 donation to support the ongoing efforts of the Sweetheart City Car Show. This gift from the CIADA Charity Fund will directly help fund car care assistance for single moms and widows in our area, in partnership with local non-profits.
The check was presented by CIADA board members Ajet Zalli (Highline Motors, Loveland), Tesfaye Teshome (Norfolk Motors, Commerce City), Bart Barnett (Loveland Auto Auction, Loveland), and Joe Fuentes (Morgan Count Motors, Fort Morgan). Representing the Sweetheart City Car Show team were Randi Rost and Roger Pilant.
We’re incredibly grateful for CIADA’s support and partnership. Events like this remind us of the power of community coming together to make a real difference—one repaired car, one relieved family at a time.
The Sweetheart City Car Show continues to grow thanks to generous partners like CIADA. And support for our efforts is spreading across northern Colorado! Stay tuned for more updates as we prepare for our next event!
Thank you, CIADA!
