HUNTERSVILLE, N.C. – Sept. 6, 2011 – While no NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver was able to win the Sprint Summer Showdown presented by HTC EVO 3D™ at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Tuesday afternoon, Sprint will make a donation of $10,000 to each of the four finalists’ designated charities.

“One of the things that made the Sprint Summer Showdown promotion so unique was the opportunity for a driver to win a $1 million donation for their chosen charity,” said Tim Considine, director of sports marketing for Sprint. “Although we’re disappointed that didn’t happen, we hope this promotion helped bring additional attention and awareness to these worthy organizations, and we’re happy to make a donation to each of them to help them continue their missions.”

The four finalists and their designated charities are:

Brad Keselowski – Brad Keselowski’s Checkered Flag Foundation
Paul Menard – Habitat for Humanity
Kyle Busch – Kyle Busch Foundation
Marcos Ambrose – Victory Junction
