NASCAR drivers are well-known for their generosity, often putting giving ahead of receiving. This spirit of kindness has been a hallmark of many drivers over the years. The latest to join this benevolent brigade is the driver of Tony Stewart, Chase Briscoe. The #14 driver recently teamed up with Huffy Bicycles in a heartwarming initiative. They’re on a mission to bring joy to children on Christmas who dream of owning a bike but can’t afford one.

The protégé of Tony Stewart, Chase Briscoe, is steering his efforts toward uplifting his community

In February 2023, as Chase Briscoe took the reins of the #14 car in Fontana, CA, he brought along a slice of his childhood – his beloved bike brand, Huffy. This alliance, which took off in 2020 amid the pandemic and virtual racing, blossomed into its third year, with Huffy backing Briscoe for what they anticipate to be his standout Cup season.

On the back of mounting pressure for the upcoming season, with the retirement of Aric Almirola and Kevin Harvick from full-time Cup racing and the team of Tony Stewart, Briscoe is shifting gears toward a heartwarming cause. In a recent social media update, he announced a plan to spread holiday cheer among over 700 elementary kids in his hometown. With support from the Gene Haas Foundation, the Bikes For Kids Foundation, and Huffy Bicycles, Briscoe is set to gift these youngsters brand-new Huffy bikes for Christmas. Sharing his excitement, he reminisced about his own childhood days, zipping around Mitchell on a Huffy bike. 

“All the kids from kindergarten all the way to fifth grade are gonna get brand new bikes for this Christmas season. So, really cool. I remember actually riding my Huffy bike all around Mitchell as a kid growing up. So, it’s going to be really cool to have over 700 kids be able to do the same thing now. Huge thank you to the Gene Haas Foundation. This would not have been possible without him. Huge thanks to Huffy as well for being able to come up with 700 bikes that’s in the Mitchell. So, super excited. It’s going to be a really cool day and looking forward to it.”

However, Briscoe isn’t alone in this race of goodwill. Jimmie Johnson, another big name in NASCAR, recently took to Twitter, announcing a generous matching initiative for donations made under a Tuesday giving campaign. It seems the spirit of giving is truly contagious in the NASCAR community!

The head honcho at Legacy Motorsport recently made a heartening announcement. “We’re proud to support our drivers who are leaving a legacy beyond the track. For every dollar donated to our #GivingTuesday campaign benefitting @TeamJJF, @ErikJonesFdn, and @VictoryJunction, we will be matching up to $10,000 now through 11/30.” This compassionate initiative was soon echoed by Joey Logano’s sincere video plea and Dale Earnhardt Jr’s rallying cry for charity.

In another act of camaraderie, Kevin Harvick handed Joey Logano a generous check for $12,000. The act of kindness sprang from T-shirt sales at Harvick’s own merchandise store, benefitting the charitable causes close to both drivers’ hearts.

Not to be outdone, NASCAR recently delivered a fleet of two dozen bikes to the eager young students at Ogden School on the Near North Side. This gesture at Ogden School is the latest chapter in a series of benevolent acts, marking NASCAR’s fifth bike donation spree this year. Their bike donation initiative is set to pedal into three more schools, ramping up the total bike count to an impressive 200 for the year. The aim? To integrate the thrill and skills of bike riding into physical education classes, empowering kids with the joy and know-how of cycling.

With the holiday season bringing in a barrage of heartwarming initiatives, it is moving to see how driver’s extend their interest far beyond the tracks!
