The NASCAR Hall of Fame Foundation, a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization, yesterday announced the return of the fifth annual “Over the Edge Charlotte” fundraising event, set to take place Friday, October 6th. Rappelling 10 stories down the Embassy Suites Charlotte Uptown, participants are raising funds to support the Foundation’s mission to provide children most in need of all ages with access to educational opportunities.
The Foundation works to ensure students have a competitive edge that best equips them for life and drives their future success. Every $20 donation brings one child into the NASCAR Hall of Fame for innovative learning experiences. Last year alone, the NASCAR Hall of Fame’s Education programming served more than 11,000 students and the Foundation provided nearly 1,500 students with scholarships, thanks in large part to the incredible support for the Over The Edge Charlotte event. Those interested in participating can learn more and register at CharlotteOvertheEdge.org. More details to come, highlighting day-of event activities on the NASCAR Hall of Fame plaza.
