The Mission of the Erik Jones Foundation is to Change Lives by Igniting Children’s Passion for Reading, Encouraging Early Cancer Detection and Care, and Promoting Animal Welfare.

Hailing from Byron, Michigan, Erik is a first-generation race car driver who ascended the stock car racing ranks to become a multi-time winner in the NASCAR Cup Series. A self-described “reserved guy,” Erik lets his competitive spirit speak for itself on the racetrack. He won the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Championship in his first year of full-time NASCAR racing and was named Rookie of the Year in the truck series (2015), the Xfinity Series (2016), and the NASCAR Cup Series (2017). 

As a reflective young man, Erik recognizes how fortunate he is to be among the few drivers to fulfill the dream of driving in America’s premier motorsports series. His years of success behind the wheel have allowed him to help others through the Erik Jones Foundation.
