Foyts and ABC Supply Raise $4.7m for HFOT

The AJ Foyt Racing team’s annual efforts to raise funds in support of the Homes For Our Troops charity at the Indianapolis 500 was another success as $4.7 million was generated during the event.

Santino Ferrucci’s patriotically-colored No. 14 Chevy has been used as an awareness- and donation-generating vehicle in recent running of the Indy 500 through the longstanding support of Foyt sponsor ABC Supply, which turns the car’s livery over to HFOT.

"We are beyond grateful for ABC Supply's sponsorship and support during the 2025 Indy 500," says HFOT President/CEO Brigadier General, USA (Ret) Tom Landwermeyer. "Their generous $1 million match was instrumental to raising $4.7 million during the month of May, and the patriotic livery of the #14 AJ Foyt Racing Chevy gave incredible visibility to our mission of Building Homes and Rebuilding Lives."

The initiative between ABC Supply and Foyt with HFOT began in 2020.

“Giving back to the community and honoring our Veterans is at the heart of who we are,” said Mike Jost, ABC Supply CEO. “The generosity we’ve seen throughout this campaign has been truly inspiring, and we are grateful to everyone who contributed to making a real difference for our Veterans.”

Ferrucci was proud to learn of the nearly $5 million that was generated in May.

“It was an honor to drive the Homes For Our Troops car in the Indianapolis 500 and extremely rewarding to know that they not only met their goal but exceeded it – again! Raising over four million dollars is incredible and it will help a lot of our severely injured post-911 veterans,” said Ferrucci. “Those funds will go a very long way in building multiple houses for them, helping them financially and getting their lives back on track. At the end of the day, AJ Foyt Racing had a great Indianapolis 500 and Homes For Our Troops had an amazing one as well!”
