| Wreaths Across America – https://www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/ A national tradition since 1992, Wreaths Across America is an initiative that has touched the lives of many. The nonprofit organization honors and remembers fallen U.S. Military members by placing decorated wreaths on national cemetery gravesites throughout the country. Al Niece has supported Wreaths Across America for several years now, having donated wreaths at various locations. Last December, Niece Motorsports drivers and employees participated in Wreaths Across America Day at the Historic Salisbury National Cemetery near the team’s headquarters. Realizing that there were not enough wreaths available to place on every veteran’s headstone, the team made it a mission to raise money for this year’s event. All three entries will have the logo placed on their B-posts throughout the remainder of the season. As part of the partnership, fans, media members, and industry colleagues are able to donate to the cause on behalf of the team by sponsoring wreaths through a dedicated page on the organization’s website. Fans who sponsor a wreath through the link will receive promo codes to the Niece Motorsports online store. |

| Throughout the month of May coinciding with the NASCAR Salutes campaign, the team will change its logo to a patriotic version with stars and stripes incorporated into the brand marks.
