Drivers from the American Le Mans Series and the Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer, the series’ official charity, build, paint and race the foundation’s signature Pinewood Derby cars with hospitalized children.
With the Petit Le Mans just days away, race teams are busy gearing up for one of the biggest races the American Le Mans Series has. But on Tuesday morning, drivers stepped away from the track and into the pediatric unit at Northeast Georgia Medical Center to spend some time with its patients. For the last five years, the Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer has teamed up with the series, becoming its official charity.
