FAST: NASCAR building rare-disease awareness
The Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics (FAST) has announced its campaign with NASCAR driver Cameron Lawrence to raise awareness for the rare disease. With the support of benefactors Ryan and Annie Jacob, Lawrence has selected FAST the team’s prefered non-profit for his upcoming NASCAR Camping World Truck Series debut at Circuit of the Americas.
“NASCAR Camping World Truck Series is an incredible platform to raise awareness; we hope to capitalize on that during the upcoming event at Circuit of the Americas,” said John Schlueter, chairperson for the FAST board of directors. “Our campaign with Cameron Lawrence is a unique opportunity to reach a brand-new audience, which we hope will be inspired to join us in our fight to find a cure for Angelman syndrome.”
