Seven-time NASCAR cup series champion Jimmie Johnson and his foundation are hosting a private charity concert featuring Concord, North Carolina’s own folk-rockers, the Avett Brothers on May 9 in Charlotte. The event will benefit the Jimmie Johnson Foundation and will be capped to 700 tickets at the Fillmore which usually holds up to 2,000. The nonprofit, founded by Johnson and his wife Chandra in 2006, focuses on funding K-12 public education supporting arts, health, wellness, language, literacy, school improvements, science and technology. Since its inception, the foundation has contributed more than $12.4 million to various organizations with over $6.3 million awarded through their Champions Grant Program.
