CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (October 8, 2025) – The Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer is set to participate in its annual premium showcase as an official Proud Charity for the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA) and the Official Charity of Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta during the esteemed Motul Petit Le Mans in Braselton, Georgia, this weekend, October 10-11, 2025.
This year marks the 19th consecutive year the Austin Hatcher Foundation has participated in the event. Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta promises a weekend filled with excitement, fundraising initiatives, and an unforgettable trackside experience for families affected by childhood cancer.
As part of the Foundation’s innovative Diversionary Therapy program, more than 200 pediatric cancer patients, survivors, and their families will be hosted at the trackside Chalet on the Front Stretch this Saturday. Families will enjoy the excitement of the race, take photos with race cars and drivers, and participate in specialized activities organized by the Foundation – all at no cost to them.
“At the Austin Hatcher Foundation, we’re ensuring no family walks through childhood cancer alone, and our motorsports partners remain an essential part of that mission,” said Amy Jo Osborn, CEO of the Foundation. “The Motul Petit Le Mans weekend has become a cherished tradition for the families we serve, and we are immensely grateful to Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta and our dozens of motorsports partners for their steadfast support.”
The Foundation will host a variety of fundraising initiatives throughout the weekend, including a silent auction at the Austin Hatcher Auction Tent in the FanZone featuring one-of-a-kind automotive gear and experiences, in addition to its signature live-painting auctions with renowned motorsports artist Bill Patterson in various manufacturer corals: Corvette, Cadillac,, Porsche, BMW, as well as the Michelin Tower Podium Club.
