Group donates vehicle to Victory Junction

LEVEL CROSS – Victory Junction accepted a vehicle during a presentation to NASCAR Hall of Famer Richard Petty last week.

The gift, which came as part of National Auto Body Council’s Recycled Rides program, was presented with the idea that it would benefit campers at the facility as it will aid in moving play equipment and medical supplies.

“This donation of a truck for our Victory Junction team and campers allows us to allocate more resources to serving children with medical conditions, giving many kids their first chance to ride a horse, catch a fish, shoot a bullseye at the archery range or make a friend,” said Kyle Petty, who’s Richard’s son. “This truck carries dreams.”

AllState donated the 2019 Ford F150. CARSTAR of Goldsboro had technicians refurbish the vehicle. NABC Recycled Rides is a program in which businesses representing various facets of the collision repair industry team up to repair and donate vehicles to individuals and families in need of reliable transportation.

Victory Junction is a camp for children with serious illnesses and chronic medical conditions. Children attend at no cost.
