The Las Vegas Grand Prix Foundation has opened nominations for its $100K Community Giveaway, offering five $20,000 grants to nonprofits across Southern Nevada. Locals are invited to nominate standout 501(c)(3) charities making a difference. The initiative reflects the Foundation’s commitment to honoring community-focused efforts while celebrating a major milestone: 100 days to race day. Finalists will be recognized during a public event on August 14, spotlighting those whose work strengthens the region every day.

The Las Vegas Grand Prix Foundation has earmarked $100,000 in total funding, split equally among five $20,000 grants. Community members can now submit nominations for eligible Nevada-based nonprofits—specifically those classified as 501(c)(3) organizations. The nomination process is open through July 28, offering a window for locals to spotlight the charities they believe deserve recognition and support.

This initiative is more than a charitable act—it's timed to align with a significant event: the 100-day countdown to the 2025 race. A special celebration at Grand Prix Plaza on August 14 will reveal the five winners.

Lori Nelson-Kraft, SVP of Corporate Affairs for the Las Vegas Grand Prix Foundation, emphasized the spirit behind the initiative—empowering community members to elevate the nonprofits that serve Southern Nevada every day. This community-first approach aims to not only offer financial support but also increase visibility for grassroots organizations doing impactful work.
