The No Fear Challenge raises $10,000 for Cancer Institute

Loma Linda University Cancer Institute was one of two charities to divide the $20,000 proceeds from The No Fear Challenge held last fall at California Speedway in Fontana. No Fear, maker of sport and casual clothing, was the title sponsor of the 100-lap NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race. No Fear challenged other companies and individuals to join them in helping people with cancer through the LLU Cancer Institute and the Bald Eagles Foundation.

Carolyn Bechtel, a NASCAR friend and member of Winston Cup Racing Wives Auxiliary (WAXX), visited Loma Linda to present the $10,000 check to the Cancer Institute.

WAXX members joined No Fear in helping to make the fund-raising event a success.
Ms. Bechtel and friend Marla Vance also visited children with cancer in the Children's Hospital. They gave each child on unit 4800 a Hot Wheels car donated by race car driver Kyle Petty.
