NASCAR driver Muniz raising funds for Victory Junction

RANDLEMAN — NASCAR driver and Hollywood actor Frankie Muniz has started a social media campaign to raise $25,000 to send 10 kids to Victory Junction, a year-round camp that offers fun, life-changing experiences to children living with complex medical and physical needs.

Muniz, who races the No. 33 Ford F-150 for Reaume Brothers Racing in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, visited Victory Junction on Aug. 5 to participate in the Camp’s NASCARnival, a weekly celebration during summer camp that features hot air balloons, games, fun snacks and an actual NASCAR-style pit stop. During the celebration, Muniz drove Victory Junction’s race car while a pit crew changed tires in front of cheering campers.

In one of his recently posted social media videos which features highlights of his trip to Camp, Muniz said, “I recently visited Victory Junction and met some kids whose courage and joy inspired me to help. This is your chance to help kids have fun, find community and build confidence they’ll carry long after their time at Camp.”
