CRAFTSMAN Will Donate $1 Million to Children's Miracle Network Hospitals through the Ace Hardware Foundation if Jones Wins Sunday at Bristol Motor Speedway

NASCAR Driver Erik Jones在这个星期天的怪物Energy Nascar Cup系列比赛中在布里斯托尔电机赛道上竞赛。如果他在20号丰田的胜利车道,工匠将通过ACE Hardware Foundation将100万美元捐赠100万美元到儿童奇迹网络医院(CMN医院)。

“这是我的第一年支持”争夺奇迹“计划,我不能更兴奋,”埃里克琼斯说。“我已经看到这个计划在过去几年中发展,并一直受到概念的启发。今天,我遇到了我的惊人荣誉船员,Gavin,Arianna,Colt和Madison,他们帮助设计了这个周末的工匠凯美瑞。我迫不及待地等待布里斯托尔的赛道,代表这些家伙,以及尼斯儿童医院的所有孩子,因为我们在周日竞争,希望与胜利巷旅行结束这一天。“

The Racing for a Miracle program is in its 13th year, aimed at driving awareness for the vital work that CMN Hospitals do to help treat their patients around the country. This year, through CMN Hospitals, the CRAFTSMAN team has recruited four children from Niswonger Children's Hospital to be honorary crew members for the April 7th race at Bristol Motor Speedway. Niswonger Children's Hospital is the Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia region's only children's hospital, and the regional affiliate of CMN Hospitals.

荣誉船员团队将于周日与琼斯落后的景观经验,终于以100万美元的价格观看他们的汽车比赛。


这四个孩子有一个独特的机会与理查德罗林斯,“快速N'响亮”和煤气猴车库的所有者一起工作,帮助设计琼斯在星期天开车的汽车。

“这对我来说是一生终身体验,”理查德罗林斯说。“我已经在汽车上工作了,我创造了品牌,但从来没有这样的人。让这四个孩子的设计有机会设计一辆车真正鼓舞人心。当时埃里克在星期天驾驶这辆车时,他觉得激情和激情进入这个设计的心脏。“

Jones今天访问了Niswonger儿童医院,推出了所有四个儿童设计师和客人的特殊油漆计划。孩子们每个人都设计了一辆在汽车上显示的独特风筝。这些风筝的灵感来自于北美儿童医院的染色玻璃风筝,为患者的希望和愈合症状。这四个孩子希望这种激情和勇气激励埃里克,因为他这个周末比赛。


Jones还花了时间与医院患者一起访问的时间,并从工匠获得10万美元的捐赠支票。此外,ACE Hardware Foundation赠送到NISWONGER儿童医院25,000美元。


"We are so grateful for the generosity of these outstanding organizations and their support of Niswonger Children's Hospital," said Lisa Carter, chief executive officer of Niswonger Children's Hospital. "As our region's only children's hospital, we serve 200,000 children in a 29 county area, and donations like this one make such a huge difference in their lives."

Over the past 13 years, the Racing for a Miracle program has donated $1.3 Million to local CMN Hospitals around the country through the Ace Hardware Foundation.
