Events & Impact
Our Fundraising Journey
Each event has been a milestone — a gathering of hearts committed to building something lasting for the children and families of Short Creek. Here is our story so far.
❤️ Copper Rock Golf Course
Founding Event Partner
Founding Partner (2024–2026)
When Angels Among Us set out to host our very first charity golf tournament, we wanted it to be something special. Copper Rock Golf Course made that possible.
By opening their course to our organization, Copper Rock gave us far more than an incredible venue. They helped create an experience that brought our community together, introduced new people to our mission, and established what we hope will become a tradition for years to come.
Their generosity extended well beyond the course itself. Copper Rock also donated tournament merchandise and a complimentary round of golf for four, providing an unforgettable prize for our winning team and helping make the day even more memorable for everyone involved.
Our inaugural tournament was successful because of the incredible generosity of our sponsors, players, volunteers, and supporters, but none of it would have happened without a partner willing to believe in our vision and provide a place for our community to gather.
We are sincerely grateful to Copper Rock Golf Course for helping launch one of the signature fundraising events in the history of Angels Among Us. Their partnership helped turn an idea into a memorable day that continues to benefit children with disabilities and their families.
"Great partnerships create lasting traditions. Copper Rock Golf Course helped turn our very first charity golf tournament into the beginning of something much bigger."
