Charities we Support
Racing 2 Save Lives was created to support those Charities that are
doing the real work for kids in need. Children suffering with
illness, those who have been neglected or abused, and those children
who need loving guidance in their lives; ALL of whom need and deserve
to be cared for. Racing 2 Save Lives salutes those dedicated men and
women who do the ‘hands-on’ work to care for these children.
Here is a growing list of the various organizations we have
financially supported. Together we are making a difference!

Here's Life Inner City - Denver - In the inner city, if you can't touch it, if you can't use it, if it doesn't help you survive — then it isn't real. Don't talk about "hope" unless you can demonstrate it. Here's Life Inner City has accepted that challenge by connecting with their community, empowering people within the community, and developing and implementing programs designed to bring about long-term change.
We have given Here's Life $25,200 in cash donations!

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation - Adding tomorrows every day expresses the mission—and results—of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s steadfast efforts to extend the length and quality of life for people with cystic fibrosis (CF). CF presents daily challenges for approximately 30,000 Americans. But life with the disease is far different today than it was 50, 30, or even 10 years ago.
Perhaps the best evidence that many people with cystic fibrosis are living longer is the fact that more than 40 percent of the CF patient population is now age 18 or older. Recently developed therapies and specialized care have enabled people with CF to gain greater control over their disease. So, children and adults are not only living longer, but also living a better quality of life.
We have given The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation $15,000 in cash donations!
