Join the Joan Rotondi Hope & Empowerment Foundation in the 2025 Cannonball Run
The Joan Rotondi Hope & Empowerment Foundation (JRHEF) is proud to confirm our official entry into the legendary Cannonball Run 2025 with our very own Team JRHEF car and driving Joan's cherished Super Charged Jaguar F-Type. We will be embarking on a thrilling journey that blends passion, purpose, and performance.

By participating, we honor Joan's legacy and drive forward the mission she held so dear.
About the Cannonball Run
The Cannonball Run is an unofficial, yet world-famous automotive event, known for its challenging routes and the legendary vehicles that participate. In 2024, the rally started in San Diego, California, and ended in the breathtaking landscape of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, covering over 2,500 miles in just one week. Click here for this years' route. While the start and end locations for the 2025 rally have not yet been announced, JRHEF is already gearing up for what promises to be an unforgettable experience.
Why This Rally Matters to Us
For Joan, the thrill of high-performance automobiles—those sculptures in motion and masterpieces of mechanical artistry—were among the things she loved most, alongside her passion for life, family, and helping others. By entering her cherished Super Charged Jaguar F-Type in the Cannonball Run, we honor her memory and share her love for these rolling works of art with the world. This event holds deep personal significance, as it allows us to celebrate Joan’s life in a way that aligns with her many passions.
how it aligns to our mission
Participating in the Cannonball Run offers an extraordinary opportunity for media exposure, allowing us to share the mission of JRHEF with a broader audience.

Our Commitment to Safety and Responsibility
While the Cannonball Run may be synonymous with speed and adventure, the JRHEF team is committed to participating responsibly. We want to assure our supporters that our drivers will adhere strictly to all traffic regulations and safety protocols throughout the entire event. Our goal is not to break speed records -- as this is a rally, not a race -- but to break through the barriers of awareness, shining a spotlight on the vital work our foundation is doing in the fight against ovarian cancer.
