Charities
The North East Enduro Tour Series breaks the mold when you think about a racing series. NEETS is known to be family-friendly, fun and affordable...but more importantly, NEETS is charity-centered!
NEETS Officials collect items/donations/etc... throoughout the racing season at each enduro event as well as host collections throught the year. Items can range from non-perishable food, pet supplies, winter coats and even monetary donations, but there is no limit to what we can do in the future!
In 2009, NEETS worked with the following charitable organizations: Elk Motorsports on behalf of the Relay for Life helped raise over $1,000 to donate to the American Cancer Society. The Montgomery County SPCA was the beneficiary of a pet food/supply drive at the "DirtStock" event. FM 102.9 WMGK was introduced to the series charitability at the "Junk-a-Thon" where winter coats were donated to Sports Caster Joe Krause to aid him in his efforts to bring winter weather gear to the less fortunate in the tri-state area. The collection continued through the new year as the final collection was hosted at Chickie & Pete's on January 3rd, 2010. Finally, Toys-4-Tots was the last charity in 2009, two collection bins were brought to the speedway and were filled by the end of the event.
In 2010, as the economy fell its farthest yet, NEETS reached higher than normal levels of donations! The Mongtomery County SPCA returned for the 2nd Annual Pet Food/Supply Drive during the GranDuro 3 and collected OVER 1,000 LBS of pet food and over $500 worth of supplies!!! The winter coat collections received all season long tallied up in the end to over 400 coats at the "Krausey's Kar Show" at the end of the season. Monetary collections were lighter than normal though, No more than $100 was collected at event for numerous charities including the Relay for Life and the National MS Society. Still, NEETS will continue to shine and strive to go forward!
Looking forward for 2011--->
NEETS is always looking for new charities to help out! We will be re-visiting some of our old favorites, but if you have a charity in mind you would like to see NEETS get involved with, send us whatever information you have! If this is an organization you have dealt with in the past, we can simply let you make the arrangements with the organization and we will organize the publicity at the events and the collections!Send charity requests to joe@neetsracing.com. Please keep in mind, we get a lot of requests to get involved with numerous charities. If we cannot help you at this time, it may not be our choice, we may already be booked for the event at which you wish to get involved, or we simply won't have the resources available to assist you at that time.
