Stocks For Tots was created as a way to bring together stock car racing and its fans, while raising awareness of the child abuse problem in North Carolina. The idea was to collect toys and raise money during a festive, family-oriented holiday event.
The first fundraiser was held at the Mooresville Armory in December 1989. Since then, the annual event has raised over $850,000 and distributed nearly 50,000 Christmas toys to children in North Carolina area. Each year thousands of people visit Mooresville for the annual event, where they get to see many of their favorite NASCAR and NHRA drivers / celebrities, as well as their show cars on display and even a visit from Santa himself.
