Talladega Superspeedway to serve as drop-off point to support Hurricane Helene recovery efforts

Late last week, Hurricane Helene traveled up the Eastern United States, making landfall across multiple communities in Florida’s Gulf Coast, Western North Carolina, Virginia and many more surrounding areas in NASCAR’s backyard. While the rebuild will be long and difficult in these communities, Talladega Superspeedway and NASCAR are committed to drive meaningful and positive impact by supporting recovery in the places where the industry and fans live, work and race.

Talladega Superspeedway will be serving as a drop-off location for supplies during the upcoming race weekend to support Hurricane Helene recovery efforts. Donations will be routed to families in need in affected areas.

REQUESTED ITEMS:

Canned/non-perishable food

Bottled water
