The RV Shop has been named a Gold Sponsor for the 2025 E-Racing the Blues for Mental Health event, following a company-led fundraiser benefiting the Mental Health Association in Delaware.
The RV repair and mobile service provider recently hosted a go-karting event at Xtreme Zone in New Castle as part of its ongoing commitment to community outreach.
The event featured a basket raffle, with proceeds directed to support statewide mental health programs.
As a result of the fundraiser’s success, the company has joined the roster of major sponsors for the annual E-Racing the Blues event, scheduled for September 20 and 27.
The hybrid event—offering both virtual and in-person participation—seeks to raise funds and awareness for mental health services throughout Delaware.
Organized by the Mental Health Association in Delaware, E-Racing the Blues brings together individuals, families, and organizations to advocate for mental health access, reduce stigma, and support recovery resources.
“Mental health is something that affects so many people, whether we see it or not,” Patrick Connell, president and owner of The RV Shop, said in a press release.
“We’re glad to support an event that helps raise awareness and brings meaningful resources to our community,” Connell added.
The RV Shop’s involvement underscores a broader movement within the RV industry to address community needs beyond recreational travel. As part of its business philosophy, the company integrates charitable activities into its operations.
Founded more than 30 years ago, The RV Shop operates out of an 80,000-square-foot facility in New Castle.
It offers comprehensive RV services ranging from routine maintenance to full collision restoration and professional paint work.
The company also provides mobile RV repair throughout Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, and neighboring areas. Technicians are equipped with advanced diagnostic tools to support a wide range of service needs on-site.
