.” He’s been on the series since the beginning, and his picks have won nine times and counting over the show’s 22 seasons. But despite his busy schedule, he returns to his Oklahoma roots time and time again for relaxation and philanthropy.
When Shelton came on, “they offered to just let him be a figurehead board member,” says Rick Grundman, the foundation’s executive director. “But, he insisted on being a full-time board member and not just putting his face up there, which says a lot about him.” “Actions speak a whole lot louder than words,” says Grundman of Shelton’s behavior with the chil-dren. He wasn’t there for just a meet and greet, but stayed all day, teaching the kids to fish.
Shelton has also done numerous benefit concerts around the country over the years as well, including one on the eve of the 2023 Super Bowl for Treasure House, a community for young adults with devel-opmental disabilities founded by former NFL quarterback Kurt Warner and his wife, Brenda. Shelton wife, Gwen Stefani, also performed.
Another organization Shelton has been promoting is the forthcoming OKPOP museum, for which he serves as an honorary campaign chair for their current fundraising campaign.
