| What is the mission of your organization? | |
| Develop motorsports career training and outreach programs for service disabled U.S. military veterans. Motorsports is a multi-billion-dollar industry covering autos, trucks, motorcycles, boats, ATVs, karts, offroad/4wd, rally, airplanes, radio control and more. It is the #2 spectator sport in the United States and #1 in sponsorship dollars. There are thousands of jobs such as welding, computer technician, engine builder, fabricator, video producer, press officer, marketer, sponsorship & advertising sales, nutritionist, webmaster, tire engineer, pit crew, transportation, logistics, retail, facilities manager and many more. Racing4Vets programs are specifically tailored to build the skills, education and job connections each individual veteran needs to achieve a career in motorsports.
Provide opportunities for disabled veterans to compete in amateur motorsports. We do this by obtaining safety equipment, vehicles, sponsorship, adapted controls, mechanical support and relationships with local organizers and racers throughout the U.S. |
