Thank you John Cockayne!

An enormous thank you to John Cockayne and his family and friends, who have worked tirelessly over the last three months selling raffle tickets for this unique Speedway car prize.

John made a promise to his wife Denise to restore this car, have some fun and use it to fundraise for the Unicorn Foundation. He would often be seen decked out in his black and white cape with racing "unicorn" helmet (complete with horn) to promote the raffle.  Raising money and awareness for NET cancers along the way, this car has made appearances at many speedway car events.

An amazing effort has resulted in this raffle raising $8,907 in just a few short months!

Thank you so much John for helping the Unicorn Foundation in their search to find a cure for NET cancer and support NET cancer patients. (John pictured with his lovely daughter below)
