The winner of the Fifth Third Bank What Drives You Small
Business Contest, which runs through May 6, will see their logo on
Ricky Stenhouse Jr.’s No. 17 Fifth Third Ford at an upcoming race.
Customers and owners can nominate small businesses online in
recognition of the way they serve their communities and push for
excellence. The public will pick a winner from the top three
nominees in late May.
One lucky business will be selected to have its company logo
featured on the Fifth Third Ford during the Coke© Zero Sugar 400.
Held at Daytona International Speedway© on July 7, the race is one
of NASCAR’s most anticipated events of the year.
“We understand how small businesses make big contributions to
our communities,” said Kala Gibson, head of Business Banking for
Fifth Third Bank. “At Fifth Third, we want to celebrate this hard
work and energy. We’re excited to showcase one small business,
giving their name and logo exposure to millions of fans at the race
and watching from home.”
The winner and a guest also will receive a VIP experience at the
race, including airfare, hotel accommodations, pit box seating and
a chance to meet Stenhouse. The winner also will receive a $1,000
MasterCard gift card and the actual part of the race car where the
winner’s logo is displayed.
Indiana-based Healthy Smiles won the contest in 2017 – and
Stenhouse won the race that featured the Healthy Smiles logo. Owner
Chad Matchett got to visit the winner’s circle.
“To have our logo on the winning car is something I still have a
hard time believing,” Matchett said. “It’s hard to put into words
how cool that was.”
Healthy Smiles is a nonprofit organization that provides dental
care to children in need through visits to elementary and middle
schools in the Indianapolis area. Matchett now has several replica
toy cars from the race with his logo on them that he brings on
school visits. The actual deck lid from the race with Healthy
Smiles logo is on his fireplace mantle. “We see that deck lid on
display and say we can’t believe this was part of a winning car at
Daytona.”
Companies with fewer than 100 employees in the Bank’s 10-state
footprint are eligible to enter. Voting criteria include three
questions: What drives you to succeed? How are you improving the
lives of those in your community? What would it mean to your
business to win this contest?
Nominations may be submitted through May 6. Public voting will
take place May 18-24; the winner will be announced in late May.
To submit a nomination and for official rules and details, visit
the contest page at 53.com/racing. No purchase necessary.
