INDIANAPOLIS — Tony Stewart, Indiana native and former NASCAR champion, announced that his foundation, which has been dedicated to supporting children, animals, and injured racecar drivers for over 20 years, is coming to a close.

“It is with heavy hearts that we announce the closure of The Tony Stewart Foundation. We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been a part of our journey,” Stewart said in a release Monday.

The Tony Stewart Foundation has made a significant impact across Indiana and the U.S., and Stewart urged fans to continue giving back to their communities.

“We have enjoyed every minute of working with these wonderful organizations to deliver vital services to children, animals, and injured race car drivers. It has been an honor to see the positive changes and smiles these efforts have brought to communities far and wide,” Stewart continued.

Stewart also said that his NASCAR team, Stewart-Haas Racing, will be shutting down at the end of the current season, marking his exit from NASCAR team ownership. He remains active in NHRA drag racing but is transitioning away from these long-held roles.
