SmilesForMiles 2026 Raises $24,160 for SickKids

Our first charity track day at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park raised $24,160 for the Garron Family Cancer Centre at SickKids.

SmilesForMiles 2026 raised $24,160 for the SickKids Foundation. The PAC team personally delivered the cheque to the Garron Family Cancer Centre at SickKids, the largest paediatric cancer centre in Canada.

Our first charity track day

On June 1, 2026, SmilesForMiles moved to Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Bowmanville for its first charity track day, hosted by PAC Building Group and Rowntree Custom Millwork. The private, invite-only event brought together clients, partners and friends for parade laps and full-throttle sessions, with every kilometre driven for SickKids.

Where the money goes

Funding like this supports research and care at the Garron Family Cancer Centre. Over the decades, that work has helped take childhood cancer survival from roughly one in ten in the 1970s to more than eight in ten today. It means more breakthroughs, and more kids who get to grow up.

In memory of Joe Crupi

SmilesForMiles began as a car rally in memory of our friend Joe Crupi, a way to turn a loss into something that gives back every year. Since 2021 it has supported the UHN Foundation, Feed Ontario and SickKids, including $41,000 for the Labatt Family Heart Centre at SickKids in 2024 and an online fundraiser in 2025.

Every dollar came from this community: the drivers, the sponsors, every ticket sold and every person who showed up. Thank you to all of you. Together, we made a difference.
