Race4Girls was created to give female race car drivers in the U.S. a chance to better compete against their male counterparts by providing funds for equipment. Contributions made by fans who want to support women in racing will fuel the fund.
When I saw this web site, and what they have done to help out female race car drivers, I was really impressed and thrilled for their organization. In today's world with an unstable economy, it is not easy for drivers, teams or owners to secure sponsorships that will carry them through a complete year of racing. I don't know if being a girl is even harder to secure sponsorships, but I feel it couldn't be any easier. I know a lot of girl racers who are seeking sponsorships and wanting to get back to the tracks to do what they love best, and follow their deep passions.
Currently Race4Girls girl driver donations for Jennifer Jo Cobb, Lara Tallman, Shea Hollbrock, Sunny Hobbs, and Regional girl driver Mercedes Harris. They are always adding more girl drivers to the list, so please check back frequently.
What their Goals are:
* Provide a resource for female drivers who need funding for their teams.
* Give fans who want to contribute to female drivers a secure place to make contributions.
* Distribute the funds in a fashion that adheres to our accountability standards (drivers must prove that the funds were used for the purpose they were requested).
* Attract one million individual contributors annually to each donate a minimum of five dollars to the Race4Girls fund.
* Provide grants for a minimum of 150 different driving events including at least one NASCAR Sprint Series race.
The contribution level starts at only $5 so any fan can help make a driver’s dream come true! You can go to their web site (Link Posted Below) for more detail on how to DONATE and help these girl driver.

Maybe in the future we can see more NHRA girl drivers such as Kelsey Lay, Hillary Will, among others receiving help from Race4Girls.

Thumbs up to Race4Girls! They are not only bringing female race car driving to the attention of race enthusiasts, but also giving female racers an opportunity to show off their skills. It’s wonderful that something like this exists in what is a predominantly male-oriented sport. This will hopefully open more doors for other women who dream of racing themselves.
