"Driving It Home" 1st Annual Fundraising Golf Tournament
SAVE THE DATE! June 28, 2025
At Community Housing Council (CHC), we believe that strong communities are built on the foundation of stable homes. Every family we support, every homeowner we guide, and every child we help find stability represents an investment in the future of our neighborhoods.
We are launching our Annual Golf Tournament, "Driving It Home," as a new tradition — one that brings our community together to celebrate, to connect, and to raise the vital support needed to expand our reach. This tournament isn't just about a day on the course; it’s about creating lasting change for families who deserve the opportunity to build better, brighter futures.
The funds raised through this event will directly fuel our mission — providing housing counseling, education, foreclosure prevention, and financial empowerment to families across the counties we serve.
Together, we can Drive It Home — creating a legacy of opportunity, security, and hope for generations to come.
