CHICAGO, July 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Stanley Black & Decker's (NYSE: SWK) iconic CRAFTSMAN® brand is once again teaming up with the Ace Hardware Foundation and NASCAR driver Christopher Bell of Joe Gibbs Racing to support the 18th Annual Racing for a Miracle program, dedicated to supporting Children's Miracle Network Hospitals (CMN Hospitals).

"Racing for a Miracle has always been about making a positive impact on the lives of children and their families," said Tony Merritt, Vice President of Sponsorships for Stanley Black & Decker. "We are proud to continue our tradition of supporting Racing for a Miracle and the incredible children joining us as honorary junior crew members. They each exemplify the spirit of resilience and determination we aim to support through our partnership with CMN Hospitals."

Over the past 18 years, Stanley Black & Decker and its brands have contributed more than $1.8M to the Racing for a Miracle program, in partnership with the Ace Hardware Foundation, to fund essential treatments and healthcare services at CMN Hospitals across the U.S. and Canada.

This year, CRAFTSMAN will donate $100,000 to the Ace Hardware Foundation in support of CMN Hospitals during a celebratory tailgate event at Ace Hardware's Corporate Headquarters outside of Chicago on July 2. The tailgate event will also feature appearances by CRAFTSMAN® brand ambassador, HGTV host and auto-enthusiast Cristy Lee, and Ace Hardware's resident home expert and TV personality, Lou Manfredini.

Honorary Junior Crew Members to Unveil Bell's Car
This year's Racing for a Miracle program shines a spotlight on ten children from Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago, who will serve as honorary junior crew members for this year's race alongside Christopher Bell's No. 20 CRAFTSMAN Toyota Camry XSE. During the July 2 tailgate event at Ace Hardware's headquarters, junior crew members will help Bell unveil his car's paint scheme for the upcoming Chicago Street Race (July 7), adorned with unique artwork created by the young crew.

"The CRAFTSMAN Racing for a Miracle paint scheme is one I look forward to every year, it's always such a fun, creative design and I can't wait to see what the kids came up with," said Bell. "It's fun to watch the kids unveil the car and see their artwork come to life. We almost got them a win last year in Chicago, hopefully we can pull it off this year. CRAFTSMAN and Ace Hardware have raised a lot of money over the years for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals and I'm proud to be a part of the program."
