Since 2022, Amped Electric Games has raised awareness and funds for kids with cancer at their races across the United States. Their first event promised big jumps, high flying thrills and an unparalleled time. With more than $7,500 raised, Amped is committed to helping raise funds one race at a time.
IN SEPTEMBER: Amped Electric Games continues to support kids with cancer in their sixth race to benefit the American Childhood Cancer Organization (ACCO) on September 1 through September 3. During the event, riders will be invited to race down Coler Mountain and two trails, the Family Flow and Thunderdome. Personal electric vehicles (PEV) will take center stage with Onewheel, Electric Unicycle, and ESK8 racing.
Amped Electric Games plans to fundraise during this race and asks for donations for a raffle entry with no limit to how many entries a person can purchase. On September 3, 2023, the donations will close and one lucky person will be chosen to win! 100% of the proceeds from the raffle will go directly to supporting families of children afflicted with childhood cancer.
Last September, during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, Amped Electric Games held a very successful GO GOLD® event while showcasing the PEV industry. Amped Electric Games set their fundraising goal for $25,000 in 2023 and they are well on their way.
“ACCO is thrilled to work with Amped Electric Games again. Childhood cancer doesn’t just happen one month out of the year, and Amped has helped raise awareness year-round. With September being such an important month to this community, we are happy to be expanding our reach further than before. Since the start, Seth zoomed into ACCO’s events calendar determined to help,” said Blair Scroggs, Public Relations Coordinator of The American Childhood Cancer Organization. “We look forward to working with them for many years to come!”
