The Home of Hope Fall Classic Golf Tournament was held on September 15, 2020 at the Lanier Islands Legacy Golf Course.

For more than two decades, the Kiwanis Club of North Gwinnett has been organizing golf fundraisers for various kid-based community projects. In 2020, for the first time, the organization teamed up with the Home of Hope at Gwinnett Children’s Shelter to raise money and help local kids move from homelessness to permanent loving homes. The golf tournament was a way for local golfers and businesses to give to an amazing organization while enjoying a fun day of golf among friends.

Business RadioX was on site providing live radio updates and interviewing the organizers, sponsors and golfers. All of the interviews were presented by Legendary Home Sales Advantage and Realtor Tyler Weant.

About Home of Hope at Gwinnett Children’s Shelter:

The new “Home of Hope” at The Gwinnett Children’s Shelter was born out of necessity along with the support of many helping hands in the community and beyond. The Home of Hope is a nonprofit residential care facility which provides services for homeless children from 0-17 years of age along with their young mothers. They also provide care and services for homeless girls aging out of the foster care system at 18 years of age. They provide customized “Life Plans” that are designed around the physical, emotional and educational needs of the children, while helping mom get a plan of action to get back on her feet.

Their goal is not simply to be a place of refuge, but a “next step” towards independence. They take their guests from homelessness, to hopeful, to a home of their own.
