4th Annual CARMAthon Fundraiser To Support Retired Racehorses On Aug. 26

Del Mar | Benoit

The California Retirement Management Account (CARMA) annual online fundraiser, CARMAthon, will take place live on FanDuel TV and TVG on Saturday, Aug. 26 from Del Mar, the organization said in a release Wednesday.

CARMAthon aims to raise $150,000 to support retired racehorses and fund essential aftercare programs. Proceeds will directly benefit their grant program, which supports over 20 Thoroughbred aftercare charities.

“Once again, FanDuel TV and the FanDuel Group are proud to partner with the California Retirement Management Account, to be contributors, and to be the broadcast home for this very worthy cause,” Executive Producer and Senior Vice President of FanDuel TV Kevin Grigsby said. “Everyone on our team–our hosts and analysts and all the people behind the camera–appreciates the importance of caring for our equine athletes when their racing careers are over, and the amazing work CARMA and its affiliates do. We are thrilled that we can help.”

Donations can be made on the CARMA website starting Monday, Aug. 7. Click here for more information.
