Support City Youth at the Rick Barnes Emerald Youth Golf Classic
Knoxville is buzzing with excitement as we gear up for the Rick Barnes Emerald Youth Golf Classic, presented by First Century Bank, taking place on Monday, September 23, 2024. This event is not just a chance to enjoy a day of golf at the picturesque Holston Hills Country Club, but it’s also an incredible opportunity to support young people in our city!
What’s the Purpose?
The Emerald Youth Foundation is dedicated to providing life-changing opportunities for Knoxville’s city youth. Through mentorship, programming, and support, they aim to help youngsters thrive and reach their full potential. Participating in this golf classic is a way to contribute to this noble cause while enjoying a friendly round of golf with colleagues, friends, and fellow supporters.
Double Your Impact!
This year, there’s an exciting twist: thanks to the Winegardner Foundation Matching Gift Challenge, every gift made to this event up to $250,000 will be matched! That means your donation can effectively be doubled, making your support even more impactful. Whether it’s a $10 donation or a $2,500 sponsorship, every bit goes further when you make your gift between now and September 23!
How to Get Involved
If you are interested in supporting this wonderful cause, you can also participate in the online auction hosted by Powell Auction & Realty. The auction details will be released in September and there will be an array of exciting items up for bidding. Keep your eyes peeled for updates—you won’t want to miss out!
For those considering a more hands-on approach, there are still a few limited sponsorship opportunities available for the tournament. If you want to step up and make a bigger contribution, reach out to Bethany Stair at (865) 270-0539 or via email. It’s a fantastic way to showcase your support for the local youth while enjoying a day on the greens!
So, Mark Your Calendar!
The Rick Barnes Emerald Youth Golf Classic isn’t just an event; it’s a chance to create meaningful change for our city’s young people. Join us at Holston Hills Country Club on September 23rd, and let’s work together to shape the future of Knoxville’s youth. Remember, your donation will be matched, so you won’t want to miss this chance to double the impact of your generosity!
