Through national initiatives with the March of Dimes, The Salvation Army and the American Red Cross, and cooperation with local human service organizations, FedEx Racing has touched the lives of thousands of individuals and offered much needed support in the form of charitable contributions and the volunteerism of FedEx team members. 2013: Denny Hamlin and the FedEx Racing Team again used the NASCAR platform to raise awareness for charitable organizations in 2013, including special #11 paint schemes for the March of Dimes at Texas in April and for Autism Speaks at Dover in June, in conjunction with the FedEx 400 benefiting Autism Speaks race weekend. In September, the March of Dimes recognized Hamlin with its highest honor, the prestigious “Champion for Babies” Award. Hamlin became just the fourth recipient of the award, joining Pro Football Hall of Famer Joe Namath, golf legend Arnold Palmer and veteran broadcaster Greg Gumbel. Hamlin accepted the award at the March of Dimes Volunteer Leadership Conference and Gala in Washington, D.C. Joining with the US Chamber of Commerce and the American Red Cross, FedEx, Denny Hamlin and Joe Gibbs helped spread the message of disaster preparedness during the annual America’s Small Business Summit. Speaking to news media and small business owners, Hamlin and Gibbs provided critical information for small business owners to better respond to emergencies and ensure the safety of employees and customers. 2012: The FedEx Racing Team highlighted immediate relief and ongoing recovery efforts following major disasters that struck different parts of the country. Prior to the race at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway in May, Hamlin and #11 FedEx crew members visited nearby Tuscaloosa, Ala., on the one-year anniversary of the devastating tornadoes that ripped through the area in 2011. FedEx helped deliver appliances to the first house rebuilt in the Alberta City neighborhood, and made a $10,000 donation to the local chapter of The Salvation Army. In the fall, ‘Superstorm’ Sandy caused extensive damage along the east coast, including major flooding and power outages in New York City and surrounding areas. In addition to the tireless efforts of FedEx team members, who volunteered their time to get much-needed supplies into the area, Hamlin and the #11 crew flew into Newark, N.J., prior to NASCAR’s season-finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway, to pitch in. The team helped unload a truck full of supplies donated by FedEx to the Community FoodBank of New Jersey, volunteered at the facility and delivered a truck full of frozen turkeys to a food shelter in the area one week before Thanksgiving. 4 Also during the NASCAR season, FedEx helped raise awareness for the March of Dimes with a special #11 FedEx Office/March of Dimes paint scheme at Texas in April, and for Autism Speaks through its title sponsorship of the FedEx 400 benefitting Autism Speaks at Dover (Del.) International Speedway in June. 2011: Disaster preparedness was again the program’s focus in 2011, as the “Race to Prepare” initiative reached local communities near San Francisco, Louisville, Kansas City and Dallas. FedEx made $10,000 donations to each of the local chapters of the American Red Cross in those markets, and to date, more than 1,000 children have participated in the program. At Texas Motor Speedway in April, Hamlin ran a specially-designed #11 FedEx/March of Dimes Toyota to raise awareness for the organization. The design for the car was created by Dallas-area twins and healthy survivors of the March of Dimes program, who traveled to Joe Gibbs Racing in Huntersville, N.C., and with the help of Denny Hamlin, designed the appearance of the car from a blank white canvas. 2009/2010: With disaster relief and preparedness as the program’s focus, Hamlin and the #11 team joined FedEx to present new Disaster Response Units (DRU) to the Salvation Army chapters in Washington, D.C. and Boston, and then worked with the American Red Cross for “Race to Prepare” workshops with school-aged children in Indianapolis, Richmond, Philadelphia, Chicago and Atlanta. The events focused attention on the simple steps families can take to prepare themselves for disasters of all types, while featuring fun racing-themed activities. 2010 also marked another year working with the March of Dimes. In addition to racing a special #11 March of Dimes Toyota at Phoenix International Raceway in April, FedEx and Hamlin worked to raise awareness for the March of Dimes by encouraging financial support of the March for Babies walks. 2008: FedEx supported community service agencies in Boston, Washington D.C., Indianapolis and Los Angeles to assist with their mission of providing food to those in need. Denny Hamlin and the #11 FedEx Racing team delivered new Toyota Prius hybrid vehicles to the agencies on behalf of FedEx, enabling them to more efficiently serve their community while supporting a continued commitment to new technologies. Each visit also brought large groups of FedEx team members who volunteered their time to assist the groups. Also in 2008, FedEx Racing teamed up with the March of Dimes to support the annual March for Babies. After a kick-off event in Dallas, Hamlin raced a special #11 March of Dimes paint scheme in Phoenix. The event raised awareness and funds for the organization. 2007: The FedEx commitment to children’s health initiatives came to life in the form of the FedEx “Wear Your 5 Heart on Your Helmet” program. Over the course of the season, FedEx worked with children’s hospitals in seven NASCAR race markets, and also with the Make-A-Wish Foundation, to find patients interested in designing the race helmet Denny Hamlin would wear in 11 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races. The creativity of the children led to great designs that renowned helmet designer Jason Beam then transferred onto the helmets Hamlin wore on the race track. Following the season, all 11 race-worn helmets were put up for auction and cumulatively raised more than $20,000 to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis. By season’s end, Hamlin and the FedEx team had visited children’s hospitals in Los Angeles, Richmond, Dallas, Boston, Chicago and Kansas City while meeting with Make-A-Wish program participants at several races throughout the season. FedEx generously presented each participating hospital with a donation of $25,000, and presented the Make-A-Wish Foundation with a donation of $50,000. 2006: Denny Hamlin and the FedEx Racing team made special deliveries to five children’s hospitals, where Hamlin was presented with specially designed helmets to wear in Cup Series races in the hospital’s home market. In addition to donations on behalf of FedEx for $25,000, the events featured activities for the patients and staff. 6 Denny Hamlin – Biography Denny Hamlin enters his ninth full season behind the wheel of the #11 FedEx Toyota in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series in 2014, following a disappointing 2013 campaign that saw the Virginia native miss four races due to a back injury and miss qualifying for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship for the first time in his career. The season did end on a positive note, as Hamlin was victorious in the finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway, extending his number of consecutive seasons with at least one victory to eight, the fourth-longest active streak in NASCAR. The 23rd victory of his career put him in a tie with Kevin Harvick and Ricky Rudd for 29th on NASCAR’s all-time wins list. Hamlin also recorded a series-high five poles in 2013. Hamlin suffered a fractured vertebra in a last-lap crash at Auto Club (Calif.) Speedway on March 24 and missed the following

Hamlin’s rise to NASCAR’s top level has been nothing short of meteoric, considering he was driving Late Model stock cars only three years ago. In 2006, Hamlin burst on the scene with his win at the prestigious Bud Shootout at Daytona, and carried that early momentum into one of the most successful rookie campaigns in NASCAR history. On his way to becoming the first ever rookie to earn a spot in the Chase for the NEXTEL Cup, Hamlin posted his first career Nextel Cup win in dominating style at Pocono Raceway. He captured three Bud Pole awards, both Pocono stops and homecoming triumph at Richmond International Raceway. By the time Hamlin sealed the Raybestos Rookie of the Year award, he was challenging for a Nextel Cup championship, ultimately finishing third. Hamlin’s abilities were on display in the Busch Series in 2006 as well. In his second full season, Hamlin recorded two wins, 23 top-ten finishes and seven pole awards. While Hamlin now finds himself racing at the highest level of NASCAR, he has been winning races since the early age of seven when he began his career racing karts in the Junior Sportsman League.
