Monday, August 2 - Detroit Golf Club
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metropolitan Detroit and the Arby’s Charity Tour have teamed up to put together a charity golf tournament for a great cause and we’re inviting you to help us make a brighter future for the youth of Metropolitan Detroit.
Currently, we have over 100 children who are waiting to be matched with a mentor and based on current trends this number will only continue to grow. More than half of those waiting are boys; some of which have been waiting over a year to be matched with a caring adult mentor.
Proceeds from this event will be used to help us recruit caring men into the Sports Buddies program. Please consider becoming a sponsor of The Big Golf Challenge because Detroit's little guys need big guys today!
