The Dale Jr. Foundation (TDJF) announced today an extension to its Driven to Give program with a new initiative around Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s racing gloves. The program is called Driven to Give Gloves, and it will feature the auctioning of Earnhardt Jr.’s race-worn gloves each month during the 10-month NASCAR season.
TDJF’s mission is to give underprivileged individuals, with a focus on youth, the resources to improve their confidence and education, and the opportunity to achieve extraordinary goals. Since 2007, TDJF has contributed to charities on local, regional and national levels through donations and nonmonetary aids. The “Driven to Give Gloves” program is the first of five major fundraising initiatives planned by the TDJF this year. In 2014, TDJF raised $933,364 to benefit more than 70 charities – the most it has ever raised in a single year since its inception.
