MIS Cares
Michigan International Speedway has established MIS Cares, a 501 © (3) non-profit entity under the umbrella of the NASCAR Foundation.
MIS Cares focuses on raising funds for various charitable causes the speedway supports. NASCAR fans are given the chance to donate while at the same time engaging in a unique and exciting experience during race weekend.
Past fundraisers range from a fishing tournament on Lake Erie with NASCAR driver Ryan Newman to a rock climbing wall in the New Holland Fan Plaza.
MIS Cares reviews charity requests on a regular basis and over time will expand its focus beyond charities MIS currently supports. For now, its focus is to fundraise for various charities throughout the region.
“Michigan International Speedway is committed to helping improve the lives of people and groups who are in need,” MIS President Roger Curtis said. “MIS actively supports charities and causes and is devoted to being a leader in the area of public service at a truly grassroots level.”
