WESTFIELD, Ind. — Tony Kanaan, winner of the 2013 Indianapolis 500 and 2004 Indy Racing League champion, hosted a fan-focused charity event in Westfield on Sunday.
Kanaan hosted a meet-and-greet with fans at Westfield's Motor District. The event allowed Kanaan a chance to give back to the community that he said gave him so much.
Fans could have their photo taken with Kanaan, buy McLaren Racing gear and even test out the same race simulator that teams use.
All proceeds went to help Earth Charter Indiana, which is a local climate organization that promotes sustainable living.
"We all need to get educated about sustainability and how we can make the place that we live more sustainable," said Kanaan. "Hopefully we'll educate them more and the new generations will set an example."
