Fore Children – Embrace Oregon

For 15 years, the Urban Golf Classic has brought together hundreds of friends who have played golf and supported thousands of young people in the city.  As we prepare for the 16th Urban Golf Classic, we are excited to announce our continued support of our Embrace Oregon Initiative supporting Child Welfare.

In the last two years, the team at the Portland Leadership Foundation has been working with the Department of Human Services and over 75 local churches to facilitate what we are calling Embrace Oregon supporting the Child Welfare Initiative.  Quite simply, our objective is to see a dramatic increase of safe and loving families mobilized and equipped to serve our region’s most vulnerable children.

Over the last year PLF and the Embrace Oregon Initiative have made huge strides in impacting the child welfare system.  The 16th Urban Golf Classic titled “Fore Children” will once again support our work to bridge the gap in identifying supportive and healthy families, so that EVERY CHILD will have a safe home in our city.

Please register your team or join us as a corporate sponsor at the 16th Annual “Fore Children” Embrace Oregon Urban Golf Classic, which begins with a shotgun start at 1:00pm on Monday, May 12, 2014 at Stone Creek Golf Club.
