Organizations helping local kids in need received a boost for their causes this morning as Speedway Children’s Charities Atlanta distributed $100,000 in grants.
The charity’s annual Grant Distribution Ceremony benefited 30 local nonprofits which each received a grant in EchoPark Speedway’s victory lane. In total, recipients will use these grants to support various needs of 12,000 kids in metro Atlanta and Georgia. Causes supported include housing assistance for families in crisis, cancer support services, meal programs, and more.
“It’s an honor to help so many nonprofits who are making a difference for thousands of children in our area,” said SCC Atlanta Chapter Director Kathy Bradley. “This is the culmination of a year’s worth of hard work by our volunteers and the generous support of our donors.”
SCC Atlanta holds fundraisers throughout the year in conjunction with EchoPark Speedway events, including its two NASCAR Cup Series race weekends. The chapter also collects donations through standalone initiatives such as Laps for Charity events at the speedway, the Kids Win Clay Shoot, and more.
SCC Atlanta is one of 11 local chapters of Speedway Children’s Charities nationwide. In 2025 alone, these chapters collectively distributed more than $4.9 million to 489 nonprofits, benefiting 268,020 children.
