Susan G. Komen for the Cure®
As the global leader of the breast cancer awareness movement, Susan G. Komen for the Cure® has helped to educate, empower, and save the lives of women all over the world. Events like the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure®, which take place year-round globally, have enabled this organization to continue their mission of helping women and their families understand breast cancer, giving them the tools to take preventative action, providing countless resources and support networks for those afflicted, and helping to fund the continued research to find a cure. Visit the Susan G. Komen site for more information about the illness, how to become a sponsor and get involved, or how to simply donate.
Team Tyson
Team Tyson is an organization that was formed to assist the family of Tyson Manni, a 4 year old from Toms River New Jersey who is battling Lymphoblastic Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. All donations go to Tyson's family to help assist with his extensive medical treatment and their economic survival during this difficult time. With Tyson receiving treatment multiple times a week at the Cancer Institute of New Jersey in New Brunswick, the commute itself has become quite costly for the family, not to mention the significant amount of time away from work and the stress of coping with Tyson's illness on his parents.
Harvest for Hunger
Harvest for Hunger is one of the largest annual, community-wide food and funds drives in the nation. It provides critical resources to local hunger relief organizations in nineteen counties in Northeast and North Central Ohio. This year's campaign is the most important to date, as the downturn in the economy, rising unemployment, and higher food and heating bills are forcing more people to turn to local hot meal programs, food pantries and shelters for assistance. Visit the Harvest for Hunger website to contribute to this great organization.
Dave Marrow
Knichel Logistics is sponsoring Motordrome Speedway driver Dave Marrow. Dave competes in the Super Late Model division and has been racing since 1997. Other divisions that he has competed in include Street Stock and Pro Truck. His career highlight as a driver at Motordrome was his title win as 2001 Motordrome Pro Truck Champion.

To do this, the main focus is on establishing the crucial building blocks that are necessary to have a good life. These building blocks are improving the education, income, and health of our communities.
