Racing for Smiles of the Northwest

Racing for Smiles, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded in 1997 by Sue Sutton, a Late Model race car driver. Their mission is to fulfill the dreams of seriously ill children, including those battling cancer or recovering from life-threatening injuries. Through Racing for Smiles events, selected children and their families are given a day filled with joy and happiness, away from hospitals and pain, creating lasting memories and providing a much-needed respite from their challenging circumstances.

Racing for Smiles works closely with local children's hospitals to identify deserving children who have either been diagnosed with life-threatening forms of cancer or have experienced serious injuries. However, the program is not limited to terminally ill children, as it also includes those who have suffered from other serious illnesses or injuries. By offering these children a day at the track, Racing for Smiles aims to provide them with a memorable experience that they can cherish during difficult times, bringing smiles and hope to their lives.
