Darrell Gwynn Foundation

VOLUNTEER PIT CREW


There is an old saying in racing, "A driver is only as good as his pit crew." Now as I drive the foundation, I'm looking to recruit a brand new pit crew to help me reach the finish line. The Darrell Gwynn Foundation has long benefited from the support of its many volunteers and activists that help the foundation fundraise and execute its events all over the country. Now for the first time the Darrell Gwynn Foundation would like to officially recognize our volunteers and invite them to join our "Volunteer Pit Crew". Whether you've volunteered for the foundation for many years or are new and would like to get involved, now we have a club for you! The Darrell Gwynn Foundation's Volunteer Pit Crew is a club where you can not only be a part of the foundation's mission to provide AWARENESS, PREVENTION, SUPPORT and ultimately a CURE for paralysis, but also have a lot fun and enjoy some great perks and benefits for being a part of our team. Whether you are young, old, male, female, racing fan or soccer mom, we have ample opportunities for you to be a part of our team.

Please see the areas below where we are looking for volunteers and contact the coach that will lead each crew. Thanks and we hope to see you become a part of our team and help us reach the finish line.

Thanks fans, you're the greatest!

Sincerely,
Darrell Gwynn
