Connecting Georgia Veterans is pleased to announce the outstanding success of its inaugural Golf Tournament, held at the scenic Bentwater Golf Course in Acworth, Georgia. The event brought together community members, partners, and supporters for a meaningful day of camaraderie, competition, and purpose- all dedicated to strengthening services for Veterans across Georgia.
Over 40 golfers participated in the tournament, enjoying a full 18-hole course, friendly putting contests, and a lively auction featuring donated items that helped boost fundraising efforts. Thanks to the generosity and engagement of participants andsponsors, the event raised nearly $15,000, which will directly support programs and resources for Veterans experiencing hardship.
Tyler Bowser, Program Director of Connecting Georgia Veterans shared, “We are proud to share that this year’s golf tournament raised enough funds to provide emergency lodging for 30 Veteran families. We are deeply grateful to our sponsors and every golfer who participated and made this impact possible. We look forward to teeing off again next year for another outstanding event.” It’s not too late to support the cause. Community members can still contribute by visiting www.cgvets.org to make a donation and help strengthen the network of care for Georgia Veterans.
