BILICKI, INSURANCE KING PARTNER WITH THE WOUNDED BLUE AT DOVER DOUBLEHEADER

Mooresville, NC (August 15th, 2020) - Josh Bilicki and Insurance King announced today their partnership with The Wounded Blue, an organization for injured and disabled law enforcement officers, which will debut at this weekend’s NASCAR Cup Series doubleheader at Dover International Speedway. Bilicki will drive the #53 Chevrolet Camaro for Rick Ware Racing, and it has sentimental value to Dan Block, president of its sponsor, Insurance King.
 
“My father, Lt. Douglas Block, served 28 years for the Rockford Police Department, but had to retire five years early due to an injury he sustained on duty,” says Dan Block. “It just so happens that his badge number was #53. So, we chose The Wounded Blue in his honor.”

Bilicki’s NASCAR tribute car will raise money for the 58,000 frontline police officers who are wounded in the line of duty each year.  That number is expected to be much higher for 2020 as officers suffer from being shot, stabbed, exposed to COVID-19 and more.

Funds raised from the car’s debut will help pay for The Wounded Blue’s “Code 4 Wellness Program,” including medical appointments for injured officers, X-rays, CT scans, lab tests, and even confidential peer-to-peer PTSD counseling.

The Wounded Blue — the only national organization that helps officers in distress who were wounded or injured on the job — says they are grateful.
 
“We are so thankful for people like Josh, and for sponsors like Dan at Insurance King who is sponsoring this car in tribute to these officers,” said Lt. Randy Sutton, founder of The Wounded Blue organization. “Their support means so much to our officers.”
