CONCORD, N.C. – This July at Kentucky Speedway, Chase Elliott’s No. 24 NAPA AUTO PARTS Chevrolet SS will sport a brand new look.
Elliott will pilot a patriotic paint scheme that features stars and stripes.
Take a look below.
NAPA AUTO PARTS has a long history of supporting the men and women of the United States Armed Forces and their families. In February, the company announced that it had raised more than $2.1 million for the Itrepid Fallen Heroes Fund (IFHF) through its annual “Get Back and Give Back” campaign.
“It is an honor to support the men and women of our armed forces who have so bravely served our country,” said Dan Askey, president of NAPA AUTO PARTS. “NAPA takes pride in our large military family, including employees and customers, and we are honored to once again support the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund. We hope to raise awareness for traumatic brain injury and psychological health conditions and enable the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund to provide care for the thousands of military families affected across the country.”
The ”Get Back and Give Back” campaign kicked off in 2012 and gives NAPA AUTO PARTS patrons the opportunity to contribute to the IFHF by purchasing T-shirts on NAPAonline.com. In addition, customers who spend $25 or more at NAPA AUTO PARTS receive free NAPA/IFHF hats, with NAPA donating $1 to the IFHF for every hat given away.
NAPA AUTO PARTS also donates $1 for each redeemed mail-in rebate for batteries, alternators and starters purchased in July, and $2 for qualifying installations. Customers also have the ability to donate all or a portion of their mail-in rebates directly to the IFHF.
One hundred percent of the donation goes to the IFHF’s mission of building nine Intrepid Spirit centers around the country that diagnose and treat Traumatic Brain Injury and psychological health conditions in U.S. service members. Currently, Intrepid Spirit Centers are operational at Fort Belvoir, Virginia; Camp Lejeune, North Carolina; Fort Campbell, Kentucky; Fort Bragg, North Carolina; and Fort Hood, Texas. Each Intrepid Spirit center costs approximately $11 million to construct and equip with the latest in brain technology and treatment facilities and spans 25,000 square feet.
Elliott’s patriotic look isn’t the only new paint scheme that will debut at Kentucky Speedway – Dale Earnhardt Jr. unveiled the No. 88 Nationwide Children’s Hospital Chevrolet SS last week.
