Thank You
Everyday, people are faced with opportunities to give to their favorite charities by volunteering or through monetary donations. We would not be able to accomplish our desired goals without supporters like you. Whether it's verbal, written or through actions, we would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation for each and every contribution. Because of your generous gifts, our high school seniors will be able to reach upward and move a little closer to their dreams. Blessings to each of you!
Top Golf - Dallas
When it comes to the game itself, players hit micro-chipped golf balls that track each shot’s accuracy and distance while awarding points for hitting targets on the outfield. Whether you’re an aspiring golf pro or picking up a club for the first time, Topgolf is everyone’s game. It’s fun. It’s competitive. And it’s a unique way to entertain corporate clients and colleagues in a very non-corporate setting. Join us on June 13th from noon to 3pm for food, fun and philanthropy supporting education!

Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions. Your generous donation will fund our mission.
