Race fans can contribute to the fight against breast cancer and enter to win a trip for two to the Ford Championship Weekend in Miami, simply by participating in Ford Credit’s Fan Challenge. The challenge runs through Oct. 4, 2003.

Ford Credit, associate sponsor of Dale Jarrett’s No. 88 Robert Yates Racing NASCAR Winston Cup Taurus, will donate $100 to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation for every lap that Jarrett completes in the Kansas 400 at Kansas Speedway on Oct. 5, 2003. Should Jarrett complete all 267 laps around the 1.5-mile tri-oval, Ford Credit’s donation would be $26,700. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Ford Credit is challenging fans to collectively match that amount by the race date by making donations at racefansforacure.com. By participating in the Ford Credit Fan Challenge with a minimum donation of $10, fans will receive an “I Donated to Race Fans for a Cure” pin, Ford Credit Racing bandana, Dale Jarrett hero card and certificate of appreciation.  They will also be automatically entered to win a trip for two to Ford Championship Weekend in Miami, Nov. 14-16, 2003.

One hundred percent of each Ford Credit Fan Challenge donation will go directly to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation to support its mission of eradicating breast cancer as a life-threatening disease through education, research, screening and treatment.

Fans can also enter the sweepstakes by mail. No purchase necessary. See official rules at www.racefansforacure.com for full details.

The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation was founded in 1982 on a promise made between two sisters – Nancy Goodman Brinker and her dying sister, Susan Goodman Komen. More than 20 years later the Komen Foundation is a global leader in the fight against breast cancer through its support of innovative breast cancer research grants, meritorious awards and educational, scientific and community outreach programs around the world. Together with its Affiliate Network, corporate partners and generous donors, the Komen Foundation has raised nearly $600 million in the fight against breast cancer.

Ford Credit is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Motor Company and is the world’s largest automotive finance company. Now in its 44th year, Ford Credit provides vehicle financing in 36 countries to more than 11 million customers and more than 12,500 automotive dealers. More information can be found at www.fordcredit.com.
