Brady Bacon – “WE SUPPORT OUR TROOPS” T-Shirt Sales During Knoxville Nationals to Benefit Purple Heart Foundation!
(Bill W) August 4, 2017 – The Bacon/Marshall Racing #99 team will partner with the Purple Heart Foundation for their t-shirt sales during the Knoxville Nationals, donating $5 for every “We Support Our Troops” shirt sale to the foundation. The Brady Bacon merchandise trailer will be at O’Reilly’s Auto Parts across Highway 14 from the Knoxville Raceway starting on Wednesday, August 9.
Brady and Xia Xianna came up with the idea last month. “After researching ‘We Support Our Troops’ shirts online last month, we came to the realization that there were not any sprint car shirts,” says Brady’s wife, Xia Xianna. “We felt very compelled that we as race fans and sprint car fans in particular need to show that we very much support our troops and appreciate the freedom they give us to race and live the life we do because of their sacrifices!! We wanted to put a shirt out that every fan could relate to whether be a Donny Schatz, Joey Saldana, or Brady Bacon fan! Everyone has a loved one that has or is serving our country and it’s our way of honoring them!”
“We are donating $5 of every shirt sold to the Purple Heart Foundation which dedicates to helping all veterans and their families!!” says Xia Xianna. “We are working directly with Veteran Tim Waechter, who also happens to be a part of Hoffman Auto Racing and an active member of the Purple Heart Foundation Chapter #3620.”
“It has been a joy in my life to work with members of The Military Order of the Purple Heart in serving other Veterans. The best part is that 100% of donated funds we earn go to Veteran’s causes. We have purchased golf carts for the VA hospital to transport Veterans from a remote parking garage, purchased TV’s for Veterans homes, replaced a stolen bow and arrows and other archery gear for a disabled Veteran, helped fund Purple Heart and Gold Star monuments, and many other support functions for fellow Veterans. We want to thank Brady and Xia Xianna Bacon for helping us to continue our mission with t-shirt sales,” said US Army Captain and Vietnam Veteran, Tim Waechter, VP Marketing/Public Relations and Social Media for Hoffman Racing.
If you can’t make it to Knoxville, shirts will be available online until August 9 at www.BradyBaconRacing.com/shopping.
Shirts come in a variety of colors including Heather Military Green, Heather Red, Charcoal Grey and Black!
Xia Xianna adds, “We can’t thank Weikel Sportswear enough for working with us on this project! It’s great having a business that stands behind you and supports your ideas. They also generously donated some of the shirts ordered!”
