Dale Earnhardt Jr. joined the elite list of Victory Junction Founders, as he commits to donate $1 million to build and maintain The Dale Jr. Corral and Amphitheater at the Randleman, N.C. camp for children with serious illnesses.
Victory Junction began with a dream, Adam Petty’s dream. His passion for helping children drove him to think of new ways to directly change the lives of children with chronic medical conditions or serious illnesses. During a Nationwide Series practice session in 2000, tragically, Adam lost his life…but not his dream. Adam’s dream now lives on in the lives of over 13,000 children and families that have suffered from over two dozen diseases such as cancer, hemophilia, spina bifida, physical disabilities and sickle cell.
Earnhardt Jr. is keeping Adam’s dream alive. On March 27, 2010, during The Dale Jr. Foundation Physical Disabilities Weekend at Victory Junction, Earnhardt Jr. joined the Victory Junction family as a Founder and broke ground on this one-of-a-kind project, The Dale Jr. Corral and Amphitheater. I was so proud to be a part of this private ceremony!!!
