cbdMD Auctions Rallycross Driver Steve Arpin's Fire Suit to Benefit Breast Cancer Research

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- cbdMD, Inc. (NYSE American: YCBD), a nationally recognized consumer cannabidiol (CBD) brand, will be auctioning off Team cbdMD Athlete and Americas Rallycross (ARX) driver Steve Arpin's pink fire suit, with 100 percent of the proceeds going toward supporting those affected by breast cancer.

Arpin closed the 2019 Americas Rallycross season on the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course on October 6, tying a season-best result with second place. His #00 cbdMD Ford Fiesta was wrapped in a bright pink hue to promote breast cancer awareness with a fire suit to match. Following the race, Arpin's team donated the fire suit to cbdMD as an auction item that will be given to the highest online bidder. cbdMD has chosen Carolina Breast Friends, a foundation whose mission is to provide resources and education through fellowship and mentoring during any stage of the breast cancer journey, to receive 100 percent of the money received from the fire suit auction.

Arpin's fire suit can be found by visiting this live auction website here.

"It was extra special to run so strong on a weekend where we honored breast cancer survivors and raised awareness with an extra splash of pink on our cbdMD paint scheme," said Steve Arpin. "I'm honored to be able to donate my fire suit for this charitable cause."

"We have always been extremely proud to have Steve as a part of Team cbdMD," said Caryn Dunayer, President of cbdMD. "To have him donate his suit for cbdMD to give to Carolina Breast Friends shows just how charitable and generous he really is."
