May 26, 2026 – Children’s Miracle Network Ambassador Jase Hendricks and five-time World of Outlaws champion Brandon Sheppardteamed up Tuesday afternoon at Club Car Wash to raise money and awareness for HSHS St. John’s Children’s Hospital.

The fundraising event brought community members together to meet Hendricks and Sheppard, see Sheppard’s B5 race car, take photos and support local children and families receiving care through the hospital.

Hendricks, who survived a life-threatening accident in 2022, shared his story of recovery and hope as part of his role as a Children’s Miracle Network Ambassador. Organizers said his appearance helped highlight the impact donations can have on children receiving specialized medical care.

Sheppard also continued his support of the hospital during the event. The New Berlin native recently donated $4,000 to St. John’s Children’s Hospital through the FloRacing Night in America Angel Donor Program following two major race victories.

In addition to Tuesday’s fundraiser, Club Car Wash announced that throughout the month, $1 from every $14 VIP Wash purchased on Tuesdays will be donated to the children’s hospital.

Organizers encouraged the community to continue supporting fundraising efforts aimed at helping local children and families receive critical medical care.
