For many, it was a classroom \u2014 a CTE program with a dedicated teacher, a well-equipped shop, and the belief that hands-on skills can open doors. Even as more students express interest in learning automotive trades, many of the public school programs responsible for developing that talent pipeline operate with very limited resources to keep pace with a rapidly evolving industry. <i>Driving Brighter Futures<\/i> was created to change that, one school at a time.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I grew up around cars, and I know firsthand how transformative it is when a young person finds their passion in a shop,&#8221; said Jimmie Johnson, seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and owner of LEGACY MOTOR CLUB. &#8220;The educators running these CTE programs are doing incredible work, often with very little. <i>Driving Brighter Futures<\/i> is about making sure they have what they need to keep inspiring the next generation \u2014 because the industry needs these students, and these students deserve the opportunity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;At Carvana, we&#8217;re deeply committed to building the workforce that keeps the automotive industry moving forward. <i>Driving Brighter Futures<\/i> is an investment in the students who will one day design, build, and repair the vehicles of tomorrow. We&#8217;re honored to team up with Jimmie Johnson Foundation on a program that puts real resources where they matter most.&#8221; said Ryan Keeton, Carvana Co-Founder and Chief Brand Officer.<\/p>\n<p>\nNominations are open and will be accepted through August 28, 2026.
