Krissie Newman is the wife of NASCAR driver Ryan Newman and Vice President of the Ryan Newman Foundation.
Krissie has always been an animal lover and enjoys the outdoors. Together with Ryan, she established the foundation in 2005. Its mission is three-fold: to educate and encourage people to spay and neuter their pets and to adopt dogs and cats from animal shelters; to educate children and adults about the importance of conservation so the beauty of the great outdoors can be appreciated by future generations; and to provide college scholarship funding through the Rich Vogler Scholarship program.
Krissie resides in Statesville, N.C., with her husband, daughter Brooklyn and rescue dogs Mopar, Harley, Socks, Fred and Dunkin.
