Who is Big Red?

Big Red, a 1973 Cadillac, has become a "senior advisor" for JFR and has agreed to be an official spokesperson for the foundation. Big Red was donated to the foundation in 2008, and later embarked on a journey along the historic Route 66 with two volunteers in a vast effort to spread the word about JFR and all it does for the indigent elderly population. At the end of Route 66, Big Red was adopted by an ardent JFR supporter, who generously agreed for Big Red to be a senior advisor for JFR. In that capacity, Big Red's first job was JFR's 2009 campaign, Drive Change: Help Elders RAP (Rise Above Poverty).
