Who – Joey Logano, driver of the No. 20 GameStop Toyota.

What – Will visit David’s House, a support facility for families of children receiving treatment at the Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth (CHaD). Logano will donate video game consoles and games for their commons room from his sponsor, GameStop, and will hang out with some of the families at David’s House to show continued support.

When – Thursday, June 25 at 2:00 PM EDT

Why – CHaD and David’s House are the charities that Logano has chosen to support. On-hand to meet Joey for the first time will be Chris Zapel, who has Cystic Fibrosis and has required several stays at CHaD. His brother, Matt, also has Cystic Fibrosis. For the past two years Chris has worked part-time for GameStop and Home Depot. His mother, Jennifer, is a longtime Home Depot employee. David’s House has meant a lot to their family. It became a place for them to hold Christmas this past December when Matt had to be hospitalized. Needless to say Joey is their favorite driver and they want to personally thank him for his support of these two facilites.

Logano will also serve as the guest speaker at the Governor’s Breakfast on Friday morning, June 26, at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway. The breakfast is the largest fundraiser of the year for CHaD. A proposed cut in state Medicaid funding will directly affect CHaD and David’s House. Logano wants to continue to raise awareness for these facilities that serve kids from around the country and the world.
