"Advance's mission is to serve our customers with care and speed – not only through the parts we sell and advice we provide but also in how we support our communities. Our commitment to heart health is personal as heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the U.S. and affects our Advance team members in a similar fashion," said Tom Greco, president and chief executive officer of Advance Auto Parts and American Heart Association National Board Member. "We are looking forward to another record-setting fundraising campaign as we take action in the fight against heart disease and stroke." In 2020, Advance Auto Parts, through the generosity of its team members and customers, raised approximately $1.4 million for the American Heart Association – a 38% increase compared to 2019. The company began its support of the American Heart Association in 2018 and is financially committed to supporting this cause through 2023.
