Hit a Little White Ball to Help Local Kiddos

The Salvation Army’s Boys & Girls Club wants you to come out and hit trees. FORE!

The non-profit is hosting a golf tournament on Monday, Oct. 12th at the Country Club of Asheville. Money raised from the event will help get the Boys & Girls Club up and running again. It was shut down because of the pandemic and there’s a lot of work to be done to get it set up under the new safety protocols.

The Boys & Girls Club is AMAZING! Kids come here after school. Caring adults help them with their homework; tutors are available. It’s a safe place for kids who might otherwise be at risk. LOVE what they do!

Sign up for the tournament here. Or, if you’re not into golfing, you can make an online donation. Every dollar invested in a kiddo is money well spent!
