THANK YOU for your interest in Golf FORE Kids, a golf tournament fundraiser benefiting Youth Advantage. The 2025 event, which was our 3rd annual golf fundraiser, was a great success, raising over $35,000 for Youth Advantage. Incredible! The event's popularity is apparent, as the event sold out over a month before the event! This event is one of only two annual fundraisers that supports the mission of Youth Advantage. To learn more about how to be a sponsor at the event, click the contact button above.
