As COVID-19 continues to effect the country many seniors in nursing homes and assisted living centers are on lock-down nationwide.
Wood Brothers Racing came up with the idea of everyone coming together to buy a bunch of tablets so these seniors could set up visitation visits with loved ones and friends.
The team has put up the first $1,500 and anything they get extra they will buy more. Anyone that is able to donate can do so on the teams online store.
Matt’s gonna be so mad when he gets a stack of 1500 cards to sign. Lol. Not really, we’re so lucky he’s onboard. Please consider donating, we’re about to wrap it up https://t.co/6XfYVzBZ1Y

When a donation is given, each person will receive a signed thank you note from Matt (DiBenedetto), Leonard Wood and both Wood Brothers Eddie and Len. As of now, its been decided that 1500 cards will be signed.
Anyone is welcome to buy more then one but for every $200 or so, they’ll send another tablet. The team is hoping to expand donation sites but for now they’ll go to Landmark Center in Stuart, VA.
To donate, please visit the Wood Brothers Racing’s online store: https://woodbrothersracing.bigcartel.com/product/tablets-for-seniors
The good news? The first round is already on its way.
First round is on the way. We’re just deciding what mixture of different platform tablets we need for the remainder. We really appreciate everyone’s help here. Link to donate is below https://t.co/dahCJZdoNR pic.twitter.com/tczrzC58r3
