NASCAR Driver Jeff Earnhardt and 9-Line Foundation Raise $15,000 for AOAF
Angels of America’s Fallen is very grateful to the 9-Line Foundation and Jeff Earnhardt for their tremendous support over Memorial Day weekend. The 9-Line Foundation raised $15,000 from selling a special edition t-shirt in recognition of our fallen which was presented to Joe Lewis at the Coca-Cola 600.
NASCAR driver Jeff Earnhardt, grandson to the legendary Dale Earnhardt emblazoned his #55 car with the Angels of America’s Fallen logo along with the names of 617 of our fallen military. Jeff also hosted one of our supported families with a special visit at his car in the garage prior to the race. It was a very emotional moment for the family when Jeff revealed his special recognition with their hero’s name over the driver side door.
During the ceremony Jeff was visibly touched by the deep sense of loss the family had suffered and detailed his reaction and thoughts in a series of interviews with Fox News, Fox Sports, and Fox & Friends. Angels of America’s Fallen deeply appreciates the strong support of 9-Line, Jeff Earnhardt as well as the Fox News family.
