Corey Heim and TRICON Garage, in partnership with the Safelite Foundation, will partner with Foster Love, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the foster care experience for children currently in the system.
In honor of National Foster Care Awareness Month, Foster Love will be prominently displayed aboard the No. 11 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro for Corey Heim in the four NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series events taking place in May.
For events at Texas Motor Speedway (May 2), Kansas Speedway (May 10), Charlotte Motor Speedway (May 23), and Nashville Superspeedway (May 30), the traditional red and white colors of the Safelite entry will migrate to blue and white.
“Growing up in a stable and supportive home, I realize how different the experience is for many foster children,” said Heim. “Hearing their stories inspired me to make a difference. While not everyone can be a foster parent, we all have the power to contribute and create positive change in the lives of these children and their families.”
This collaboration, supported by TRD U.S.A. partner Safelite and its charitable arm, the Safelite Foundation, celebrates a significant milestone as Foster Love has recently served its one-millionth child in foster care. To honor this achievement, the Safelite Foundation invested $1 million and pledged 100,000 associate volunteer hours to advance Foster Love’s initiatives.
Heim will join Wendy Bradshaw, Director, Safelite Foundation, to present a second check for $1 million to Foster Love at the GR Garage in Mooresville, North Carolina, wrapping up the month-long collaboration to spread joy and support to communities nationwide.
“Our associates have enthusiastically embraced our partnership with Foster Love, stepping forward to actively participate in furthering their mission while sharing their own personal stories of involvement in the foster care system,” said Safelite’s President and CEO, Renee Cacchillo. “We are excited for Corey to race in blue, knowing that his passion for helping us raise awareness will make a significant impact on many and help us drive measurable outcomes for foster youth in the U.S.”
Foster Love will debut on the No. 11 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro this weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. Coverage of the event will be on FS1, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio (Channel 90), and the NASCAR Radio Network.
