The WINGMEN That Have Your Back

Supporting Children & Military Veterans

WHY "CHECK-6"?

​

The Check-6 Foundation is named after, and based upon an aviator’s practice of checking his wingman’s 6 o’clock position (directly behind him) to ensure it is clear of any threat. Simply put, a concept of “I’ve got your back and am looking out for you.”

OUR VISION

     Our vision is that one day, every child battling a serious medical condition, and every military veteran in need will have a WINGMAN who HAS THEIR BACK.

OUR CHILD HEROES

     Throughout the country, there are too many children battling serious illnesses and need our support. The children we help are true warriors in every sense of the word. Our programs give them the inspiration and additional support to continue to fight. Our flagship PILOT FOR A DAY program allows these children and family's the opportunity to replace some of their sad memories with great ones and smiles!

OUR VETERAN HEROES

     Our military service members and Veterans have sacrificed so much for our country, and us individually. Many of them continue their own personal battles after they transition to civilian life. Others, who are still in uniform, need additional support that just isn't available otherwise. We stand bye our Veteran's and provide aid, assistance, unique experiences, and above all a sense of purpose and hope. They are our WINGMEN and we are theirs!
