Hosted by Ford Customer Service Division!

Come back on June 28 to see the winning design! Although the contest has officially ended you can still click here to make a general donation to the contest.

JDRF and Ford Customer Service Division (FCSD) are joining forces to help raise awareness and funds for type 1 diabetes (T1D) research through the "Our Everyday Heroes" Race Car Design Contest for JDRF. The winning design will be painted onto the Motorcraft/Quick Lane Ford Shelby Mustang Funny Car driven by Bob Tasca III. Now in its sixth consecutive year, the contest has raised over $250,000 for the cause. Read the official press release here. 

The winner will attend the Route 66 NHRA Nationals June 28-30, 2013, a professional drag race where the JDRF-themed Ford Shelby Mustang Funny Car will race at speeds faster than 300 mph.

JDRF children living with type 1 diabetes, ages 5-18, from across the country entered their own unique designs in this contest. Each donation made will be credited toward the child's JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes Family Team. These featured top ten donation-earning designs will be narrowed down to one lucky winner. The winning design will be selected by a committee including representatives from FCSD, JDRF, Bob Tasca III and members of the media.
