Built on the belief that success brings with it a responsibility to give back, the Foundation is dedicated to supporting causes that change lives and create opportunities.
Purpose
At its core, Gas Monkey Foundation exists to channel the energy and visibility of the Gas Monkey Garage community into meaningful philanthropic efforts. The Foundation provides direct support to nonprofits and programs that focus on those affected by Alzheimer’s, as well as veterans and first responders. By leveraging both financial resources and the power of storytelling, the Foundation ensures that its efforts not only provide immediate impact but also inspires others to get involved.
Who It Benefits
The Foundation’s initiatives focus on:
- Alzheimer’s Patients and Families – Given Richard Rawlings’ experience with his father having the disease, the Foundation supports efforts to advance research and provides support to families impacted.
- Veterans and First Responders – Organizations that assist those who have sacrificed for their communities and country, helping them reintegrate, heal, and thrive.

Looking ahead, Gas Monkey Foundation is committed to expanding its reach and deepening its impact. Key goals include:
- Growing partnerships with national and local nonprofits to amplify results.
- Creating signature fundraising events that engage fans and partners while directly fueling charitable initiatives.
