Overview

Mission

To engage through Motorsport's opportunities, medically retired or retired Service Members, affected by military services, aiding in their recovery.

What it reported doing in 2025

The Motorsport Immersion Program has been a critical component in helping create a unique, engaging, empowering, and non-clinical approach to improving overall mental health and wellbeing for veterans affected by their military service. The Foundation offers a network and connection they are familiar with, aiding in their recovery, and ultimately improving their quality of life. These unique motorsport experiences demonstrate to the medically retiring service member or veteran that many of their skills are transferable and they continue to be needed, while also exposing them to new opportunities.
