The National Off Road Racing Association (NORRA) announced today the “Rally for Relief”, as an adjunct to its forthcoming NORRA Mexican 1000 Rally. Last week hurricane “Jimena” ravaged the Baja Peninsula and directly affected many of the locations that the Mexican 1000 Rally is scheduled yo visit. As of today, 1000’s of people are homeless, without food, water or electricity. NORRA is calling all participants, racers and the off-road community at large to pitch in and lend some support to our Baja neighbors. NORRA is activetly seeking donations of clothing, canned food, dry goods, basic shelter (tent,tarps,etc.) and financial support. We ask that all participants in the event clean out their closets and pantries! Just fill a box and bring with you to the Rally. NORRA is working with the Mexican authorities to develop a distribution plan to ensure that the items go where they are needed most. It is important to remember that many of pour Baja neighbors live on basic level in even the best of times…. no they’ve truly lost it all. To learn more call: 661-268-1232 , visit the NORRA website: www.norra.com or email NORRA at info@norra.com to find out the items in greatest demand.
