Jason Leffler and Charlie

Jason Leffler did not have life insurance when he died. Todd Braun, current Turner Scott Motorsports owner Harry Scott and Great Clips chief financial officer Steve Overholser have established a fund to help his son.

Of course the scammers are already out trying to capitalize on your generosity and steal money from this sad tragedy and the loving efforts of those who would like to help. If you’re interested in helping, please make sure you are giving money to organizations that are directly connected to the Trust. As of now, there are two ways to donate where you can be ultimately assured your money will go to the Trust.

Donations may be sent to:
The Charlie Dean Leffler Discretionary Trust, c/o SunTrust Bank, 232 Williamson Road, Mooresville, NC 28117.

Set up by the USAC Benevolent Foundation:
Charlie Dean Leffler Education Fund, USAC Benevolent Foundation, c/o Executive Director Bill Marvel, 4910 W. 16th Street Speedway, Speedway, IN 46224. Donations should be earmarked for that program. Reported by Bob Pockrass

Or if you’re looking for an easy online way to contribute:
The Tony Stewart Foundation and Jeff Patterson set up a GoFundMe project Jason Leffler Memorial Fund.
The online fund will help Jason Leffler’s young son by securing his educational needs and insure that he has the same chances that the rest of us enjoy. All the money will be given to the Charlie Dean Leffler Discretionary Trust c/o Suntrust Bank.

Between 8:30 and about 9:15pm tweeters were sending out their prayers that he was ok and wishing his family strength to help him recover.

But rather one that was well liked, well thought of and even loved by team mates and those he worked with alike. Not to mention the flood of fans who were rallying to his side, even if it was merely from cyberspace.

My first indication something had happened was from our current Nascar Champion Continue reading →
