4th Annual “Fore Our Kids” Golf Tournament Will Be Held Oct. 22

 

On Fri., Oct. 22, golfers will tee off in the “Fore Our Kids” tournament to raise money for Embrace Families. The event will support critical services that provide assistance to strengthen families and prevent child abuse.

Last year, Embrace Families delivered services to over 9,800 young people in Central Florida. Some are in foster care; all are victims of, survivors of, or at risk of abuse or neglect. Funds raised from this event will be used to ensure safety, provide permanency and maintain the well-being of children in Central Florida.

Participants can compete either individually or as part of a team of four. Golfers must register online at www.foreourkids.com. Space is limited; registration closes on Friday, Oct. 15, if spots are available.

The event will adhere to Orange County and CDC guidelines to keep players and event staff safe amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Face masks and hand sanitizer will be provided onsite.

Embrace Families, a 501c3 not for profit organization, helps Central Florida families overcome the root causes of abuse and neglect through programs that offer case management and other prevention services. When a child can’t remain safely in their home, we support them through foster care, adoption, mentoring and beyond.
