The Peoria Chamber of Commerce is holding the fifth annual Charity Golf Tournament, a hallmark event set for April 22 at the Arrowhead Country Club, located at 19888 N. 73rd Ave., in Glendale. With an early start at 7 a.m., the tournament promises a day filled with camaraderie, competition, and charity, as it aims to bolster the local community, support veterans, and ensure the safety and development of local youth and first responders.
At the heart of this year’s fundraising efforts is the Peoria Diamond Club, an organization dedicated to enriching the lives of local children through education and developmental programs. Known for their commitment to fostering safe and engaging environments for youth to grow and thrive, the Diamond Club’s initiatives are crucial in nurturing the potential of tomorrow’s leaders.
In addition, the tournament will support Soldier’s Best Friend and The Phoenix Legacy Foundation, organizations that provide invaluable services to our community. Soldier’s Best Friend offers a unique program that pairs combat veterans living with PTSD or TBI with service or therapeutic companion dogs, many of which are rescued from local shelters.
The Phoenix Legacy Foundation works to raise awareness and deepen community engagement for charities that support children, pets, and veterans. Through their efforts, they’ve positively impacted over 25 local charities, enhancing the welfare of our community’s most vulnerable.
Participants in the 2024 Charity Golf Tournament can look forward to a variety of perks, including breakfast, lunch, post-event appetizers, alcoholic beverages, swag bags, and the chance to win prizes through various contests and raffles. The event also provides a unique opportunity for networking within the business community. Notably, the tournament will feature the spirited competition for the First Responders Cup, honoring the service of Peoria’s first responders.
Organized by the Peoria Chamber of Commerce, this event embodies the Chamber’s commitment to supporting the community and promoting a thriving local business ecosystem. For more information, visit peoriachamber.com/golftournament.
