KEVIN GOBRECHT MEMORIAL FUND (KGMF)
The KEVIN GOBRECHT MEMORIAL FUND (KGMF) is a 501c3
established in 2000 to honor the memory of Kevin Gobrecht. Gobrecht,
sponsored by Amoco Oil and NASCAR’s Dave Blaney, lost his life at
age 30 in 1999 while racing with the elite WOO series in Nebraska. A
New Oxford native, his family established his memorial fund to honor
education and Gobrecht’s love of racing.
KGMF distributes $7,000 in scholarships annually, as well as
donations to other charitable organizations. As of 2011, KGMF has
donated more than $250,000 in scholarships, charitable giving, and
memorial sponsorships.
Fundraising is accomplished through donations, Kevin Gobrecht
memorial t-shirt sales, and an annual golf tournament in Kevin’s
memory. Additional information is available on
