Annual fundraising event is Dec. 1-2 at The Palencia Club
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (Aug. 21, 2024) – The Monique Burr Foundation for Children (MBF) proudly announces the 2024 Dream Finders Homes Champions for Child Safety Pro Am Golf Tournament, presented by AT&T, Impact Landscaping and Irrigation, The Jahna Family, Jax Utilities Management, MJC Land Development, and Perry Homes, and the opportunities to support the development and delivery of MBF Prevention Education Programs, which educate and empower children to protect them from abuse, bullying, and other types of victimization.
The tournament is Monday, Dec. 2, at The Palencia Club in St. Augustine. The tournament’s Pairings Party is Sunday, Dec.1.
“With 14 million youth served through our MBF Prevention Education Programs, and so many more to reach, our annual golf tournament is all the more critical to our efforts to raise much-needed funds and awareness,” said Tanya Ramos-Puig, MBF Chief Executive Officer. “The participants and sponsors of our Dream Finders Homes Champions for Child Safety Pro Am Golf Tournament help fuel our life-saving work and create lasting impact in the lives of our most vulnerable citizens, not only in Jacksonville but across our nation and around the globe.”
Last year, the 2023 Pro Am Tournament raised over $457,000 in support of protecting youth from child victimization. The community response to support this popular event has been positive, but there are still so many children MBF needs to reach. Sponsorship opportunities, ranging from $2,000 to $50,000, are available. Companies and individuals interested in supporting child safety are encouraged to learn more about the sponsorship benefits.

All proceeds from the Dream Finders Homes Champions for Child Safety Pro Am Golf Tournament support MBF and MBF Prevention Education Programs. These programs are designed to empower youth, equipping them with strategies to prevent, recognize, and respond appropriately to various challenges such as bullying, online dangers, child abuse, and exploitation/trafficking.
