“Racing For Kids is just a great charity and a great cause. To go on a hospital visit and to visit kids that are sick and that have such an optimistic outlook - it’s mind boggling and so inspirational. Racing For Kids has done so much over so many years. I’m just glad to be a part of it and to have the opportunity to make a difference.”

“I couldn’t imagine being in some of those situations being 4, 5 , 6 or 18 years old even…so whatever I can do to help is the most important thing and I think it’s just knowing that I impacted their day in the littlest way possible is huge for me.”

“For us to be able to go and have some time with them and just hang out and take pictures and be in our race suits …. It brought a smile to their face, which in turn made us smile and feel really good inside.”

“It’s great to see how involved they (Racing For Kids) are in each community that we go to and anytime we get a chance to meet some kids that are going through a rough time and hopefully provide a little bit of excitement and happiness to their day is a great experience for us as well.“
