πŸ“£ NEW SPONSOR! β˜† Edwardsville, IL - The Edwardsville American Legion Charitable Foundation 501(c)(3) or EALCF Edwardsville American Legion Foundation is designed to provide our veterans with community support activities in line with the principles and objectives of The American Legion, specifically supporting veterans' service programs in Southern Illinois and the Metro East Region of Illinois through programs conducted in conjunction with American Legion Post 199 Edwardsville and other similar organizations.

"EALCF is thrilled to announce its collaboration with talented kart racer Matt Zigaitis for the upcoming racing season. Together, we strive to foster a culture of excellence and opportunity to reach new heights in both sport and community engagement," says Bobby Elzie, President of EALCF.

"The karting and veteran communities are tight-knit and family-oriented. We hosted many Veterans and Supporters on 2023 Race Days and other events. We wanted to find a mechanism and opportunity to donate to such a worthy effort. You can contribute directly to the foundation by scanning the QR Code found on this year's team branding," says Zigaitis.

The QR Code and EALCF brand below will make its debut on the #74 Global Force Kartsport championship team April 6th with the Gateway Kartplex Ignite Karting Series season opener through October.
