The Dale Jr. Pit Board Charity is only seventeen months old, but in that short time, fans of Dale Earnhardt Jr. have given over $50,000 in donations to various charities.Ã Those charities include the Victory Junction Gang Camp, the Dale Earnhardt Foundation, Motor Racing Outreach, Speedway Children’s Charity and many more. The way the charity works is simple, at the beginning of the year, a charity line up is formed and a charity is assigned to each finishing position.Ã The charity that matches Dale’s finishing position each week receives that week’s donations. Ã The Pit Board Charity also has special events where fans can get their hands on autographed memorabilia from Dale. Ã For the upcoming Brickyard, the PBC is giving away an autographed rear quarter panel from the #8 Bud Chevy. While Dale Jr. makes his mark on this sport, his fans are setting an incredible pace.Ã They are driven by Dale’s great talent as a race car driver and his benevolent personality.Ã NASCAR fans are known for their loyalty, the Pit Board Charity gives Dale Jr. fans a unique way to support their driver.Ã Every week, no matter where the Bud team finishes, a victory is won for a needy charity. The Pit Board Charity is a fan based, Internet driven organization. Ã They have a donor recognition program and online chats each Monday night. Ã The PBC also works with Elliott and Hermie Sadler doing various fundraisers for the Faison School of Autism, their next event is scheduled for the Bristol race.
