Charity Receives $100,000 Donation from Sycuan Band's Golf Tournament Funds in California
Hey there, folks! Let's talk about the slick Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation's annual Sycuan Cup Golf Tournament. They hosted this bad boy at Singing Hills Golf Club on Tuesday, and let me tell you, it was a swingin' affair.
The tournament raised a cool $100,000 for four deserving charities! That's right, four non-profits walked away with that sweet cash, thanks to the generous attendees who supported the event. Sycuan Band Chairman Cody Martinez wanted to give a huge shout-out to everyone who showed up, saying they made it all possible.
Now, let's talk about these charities. During an awards ceremony, the Sycuan Tribal Council gave out $25,000 checks... and I've got the juicy details, right here!
First up, we've got SBCS— they used to be known as South Bay Community Services. This organization transforms communities to help kids, youth, and families flourish in San Diego County. Every year, they assist over 50,000 people reach their full potential.
Next, there's the HorsePlay Collective. This group of pros helps trauma survivors through equine-assisted coaching and therapy, at low or no cost. They’re working on a new project called Reciprocity Ranch to bring their mission to life and heal the community.
War Party Ranch is another recipient. This 501(c)3 non-profit helps women and girls gain working and life skills, leading to independence and self-reliance.
Finally, we've got the Elymash Yuuchaap Scholars and Leaders Program at the Native Resource Center at San Diego State University. This organization aims to support students with a commitment to Indigenous communities, engaging, promoting, and developing their cultural, social, academic, and leadership skills.
