Mission & Focus Areas

The organization’s stated mission is to raise funds, primarily through annual tournaments, and donate the entire net proceeds to various unaffiliated organizations.

Its 2025 grants included health care and social-service organizations. For example, Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation describes its work as providing support and programs to families of children with life-threatening or critical illnesses. Ryan House says it provides family respite services and end-of-life care to Arizona children with life-limiting conditions. Fresh Start Women’s Foundation describes its mission as helping women achieve self-sufficiency. These are the grantees’ stated missions, not the funder’s.

The 2023 filing says recipients are vetted for financial reputation before awards are made. It also says the organization does not have procedures to monitor how awarded funds are ultimately used, and relies on recipients and other agencies to ensure funds are spent for their designated purposes.

Grantmaking

In filing year 2025, the organization reported 14 grants totaling $405,244. Grants ranged from $7,335 to $75,000, with a median of $12,004. The listed 2025 grants were designated for “general purpose.”

Among the largest reported awards were $75,000 each to Baylor Health Care System Foundation in Dallas, Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation in Las Vegas, and Northside Hospital in Atlanta. Harris Health Strategic Fund in Bellaire received $50,000. Arizona Hemophilia Association received $25,788, Ryan House received $25,778, and Fresh Start Women’s Foundation received $14,008.
