THE NMPA HOME DEPOT HUMANITARIAN AWARD
IS OPEN FOR NOMINATIONS
The Home Depot® is partnering with the National Motorsports Press Association (NMPA) to present The NMPA Home Depot Humanitarian Award. The 2009 NASCAR season is the third year the award will be presented and the winner will be announced at NASCAR NMPA Myers Brother Awards luncheon in Las Vegas in December.
The NMPA Home Depot Humanitarian Award recognizes an individual in the NASCAR community that has shown a dedication to helping others and improving communities through their service and giving. The award winner will receive a $100,000 donation made by The Home Depot to the recipient’s charity of choice and a specially-designed crystal award. Two finalists will each receive a $25,000 donation to their designated non-profit organization.
All active employees within the NASCAR industry – drivers, owners, team and track employees, media partners, and motorsports media – are eligible to receive the NMPA Home Depot Humanitarian Award. Nominees are assessed based on their community commitment and dedication, impact on the community and charitable giving of their time and talents.
