Brad Keselowski's Checkered Flag Foundation has partnered with National Military Family Association since 2017 to provide family bonding retreats for wounded, ill, or injured service members. Operation Purple Healing Adventures (OPHA) are weekend-long experiences that allow families the quality time they need as they adjust to their "new normal"...life after sustaining a service-related injury. Families have the opportunity to partake in fun camp activities and uniquely designed exercises that promote connection and communications between family members -- at no cost to them!

Cabarrus Healthcare Foundation is pleased to announce a grant it has received for a second year from NASCAR Driver Brad Keselowski’s Checkered Flag Foundation will continue funding the Veterans Recognition Program at Atrium Health Cabarrus. During a presentation held at Atrium Health Cabarrus on June 17, 2021, Brad Keselowski’s Checkered Flag Foundation presented a check in the amount of $114,350 to the Foundation and Hospital leadership to continue supporting the Veterans Recognition Program at Atrium Health Cabarrus. The program, launched in early 2020 started as a need identified by a caring, committed and dedicated nurse who wanted to recognize veteran patients. Like the Checkered Flag Foundation, Atrium Health Cabarrus wants to continue to honor and assist those who have sacrificed greatly for our country through the establishment of the Veterans Recognition Program. Brad Keselowski’s Checkered Flag Foundation (BKCFF) recently celebrated the graduation of service canine Rage to her new owner and handler, United States Army Veteran Scott Craig. Rage became the third certified service canine to be awarded to a deserving military veteran through the BKCFF Service Dog Fund, a grant program that sponsors the full cost of preparing and training canines for veteran service through the experienced training team at Black Paw Canine. Part of the Checkered Flag Foundation’s mission is to honor and assist those who sacrifice greatly for our country by supporting veterans during their journey back to civilian life.
 April is designated as Month of the Military Child (MOMC), a time to celebrate the resiliency and strength of children within military families. One way that Brad Keselowski and the Checkered Flag Foundation will recognize MOMC is by hosting a virtual auction giving supporters a chance to put the name of their beloved military child on Brad Keselowski’s No. 2 Team Penske Ford Mustang for the April races at Martinsville, Richmond & Talladega. Three different children will be selected to have their name in purple letters – the official color of MOMC - above Brad’s passenger side door. While Brad Keselowski has raced with his name in purple letters before, this year the program returns in a unique way to allow families the opportunity to nominate a loved one. Part of CFF’s mission is to honor military members and their families who all make sacrifices.

The program will outfit veterans in tailored suits that will prepare them to be dressed for success as they begin their search for employment following their service. NASCAR driver and Checkered Flag Foundation Founder Brad Keselowski will present the Ike Behar suits to service members at a private, intimate event on Saturday, December 19, where he will learn more about their upcoming career goals.
