The Indianapolis-based Foundation, established in 2003, is chaired by Hoosier native and two-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Tony Stewart. Since its inception, the Foundation has awarded over $4 million in grants to qualified not-for-profit organizations throughout the U.S.

Stewart’s expansive philanthropy earned him 2008 “Person of the Year” honors from NASCAR Illustrated.

BPS will work with Foundation executive director Joni Thompson in a wide range of areas including corporate identity creation, e-newsletter publication, website design and maintenance, production, media relations, publicity, and public relations consultation.

“Simply stated, we’re thrilled to be chosen (to represent The Tony Stewart Foundation),” said BPS vice president & director of public relations Sally Bonneau. “Tony has long been a personal favorite, from his early years in USAC midgets, sprints and Silver Crown right on through to his current NASCAR endeavors.

“Not only have we celebrated his numerous championships on the track, but we’ve also been impressed with his Foundation’s support of many of the causes that are near and dear to our own hearts,” she continued. “Now, for BPS to be tapped to provide marketing support to the Foundation, well, it is truly a privilege.”
