NASCAR has a longstanding relationship with the U.S. military, highlighted by events like the annual Coca-Cola 600 Memorial Day Weekend and various initiatives supporting military personnel. Recently, NASCAR collaborated with Toyota for the 'Holidays for Heroes' fundraiser to support military families during the holiday season. The initiative includes a significant donation from William Sawalich to Veterans Bridge Home and invites public participation through events at the NASCAR Hall of Fame. NASCAR's connection with the military is further exemplified by members like Bud Moore and Henry Smokey Yunick, who served in World War II, and Bill France Jr., who strengthened NASCAR's military ties through his naval service.
