MIS Cares
Michigan International Speedway has established MIS Cares, a 501 © (3) non-profit entity under the umbrella of the NASCAR Foundation. MIS Cares’ mission is to create a lasting, positive impact on our community through charitable giving and volunteer efforts that cultivate community growth and advances quality of life. NASCAR fans are given the chance to donate while at the same time engaging in a unique and exciting experience during race weekend.
2009 fundraisers included:
• Lake Erie Fishing Tournament with NASCAR driver Ryan Newman
• Rolling Rock climbing wall on the New Holland Fan Plaza
• Twisted Tea tasting
• NASCAR Day Pins
• PGA Golf demonstration
• Online Auction for honorary starters of Racing for Wildlife 200
