MX for Children Introduces Jackpot Challenge Drawing

2015-03-12 16:50
MX for Children announced today a new fundraiser, an opportunity drawing for $10 per ticket, that will allow Supercross fans a chance to win a grand prize VIP trip for two to the finale of Supercross in Las Vegas. Tickets for the drawing are available online until April 13, 2015 when the winners will be announced. There are three prizes for the drawing: the VIP trip for two to the finale of Supercross in Las Vegas; a $500 gift card to the Motorcycle Superstore; and autographed Fox race pants from Ryan Dungey.

“The Jackpot Challenge drawing gives Supercross fans an incredible opportunity to help a kids focused charity and potentially participate in an invaluable unique experience,” said Paul Gross, founder of MX for Children. "The value of two backstage passes to Supercross in Las Vegas is priceless.”

The Jackpot Challenge drawing benefits hydrocephalus research at nine hospitals across North America. Hydrocephalus is the #1 cause of brain surgery in kids and affects approximately one million people in the United States. Feld Motorsports, the Motorcycle Superstore and Ryan Dungey have all donated generous support to help make this charity fundraiser a success.

Tickets for the Jackpot Challenge drawing are available from now until April 13, 2015 when the drawing will occur. To purchase tickets for the Jackpot Challenge, please visit us at http://mxforchildren.kintera.org/faf/drawing/default.asp?ievent=1129443 , our Facebook page, or on Twitter. All proceeds from the Jackpot Challenge benefit hydrocephalus research being funded by the Hydrocephalus Association.

MX for Children is a group of volunteers that organize fundraising events and unique experiences around the sport of Motocross and Supercross benefiting kids who have hydrocephalus. In addition to this drawing, MX for Children runs an annual auction of unique autographed Supercross gear and the Inside Line Experience pledge drive in conjunction with Supercross. All events provide a way for people who love the sport of motocross to give back to their community in a significant way.
