“Looking back on an incredible holiday party with the team that makes it all happen. Merry Christmas and cheers to an amazing year ahead.”

He continued, “We’re building something, it’s been a journey, it’s still going to be a journey but I promise you we have great things right ahead of us. We’re going to continue to grow, evolve, and have the success we’re so critically judged by our audience.”

He ended the speech by highlighting how LMC is lucky to have the Petty family name as the foundation for the team, and that they will continue to grow and evolve moving into 2025.

Erik Jones reflected on the 2024 success of his foundation

The Erik Jones Foundation is an initiative by the LMC driver and was founded in 2021. The foundation aims to change lives by igniting children’s passion for reading, encouraging early cancer detection and care, and promoting animal welfare. Jones looked back at the philanthropic work done by his foundation in 2024.

Jones posted on X:

“What a year it's been for the @ErikJonesFdn. We donated 1 book vending machine, hosted @thesunbus_us for mobile skin cancer screenings during two race weekends this season, hosted our annual Clays for Causes and 3 Reasons to Race Fundraisers, continued the #WindowOfHope Program, and were named Comcast Community Champion of the Year.”

Jones is the man behind the Window of Hope program where the drivers race with pink window nets and later sign them. The nets are then auctioned and the proceedings from the same are donated for cancer research.
