Hendrick, Get Set. Go! Initiative
Started in 2021, Hendrick, Get Set. Go! is a grant program that uses the excitement of the HendrickCars.com racing program to spotlight science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) in the automotive and racing industries, and get more students to the starting line of their future careers.
Selected schools receive a $25,000 grant from Hendrick Automotive Group and an interactive event that brings together Kyle Larson, local dealership teammates, students and faculty to celebrate.
Past events have included roundtable Q&A sessions with Larson, Crew Chief Cliff Daniels, Hendrick Certified Master Technicians and recruiters; hands-on Chevy racing engine builds and pit stop practices; field trips to races and Hendrick Motorsports; and even go-kart racing with Larson himself.
