About this event

Event lasts 7 hours

Welcome to the 4th Annual EYM Golf Tournament!

Join us on Saturday, April 26, 2025, at the beautiful Penmar Golf Course for a day filled with excitement, friendly competition, and charity. Get ready to swing those clubs and show off your golfing skills!

Whether you're a seasoned golfer or just starting out, this event is perfect for everyone. Gather your friends, family, colleagues, and like-minds and join us on the green or just come for brunch at the picturesque outdoor clubhouse.

All ticket and donation proceeds from this event support the amazing work Educating Young Minds is doing in the field of education for inner city youth!

Educating Young Minds (EYM) is a non-profit educational institution that provides services to students kindergarten through senior year in high school. President and Director of EYM, Angelese Echols-Brown founded this organization to provide holistic educational assistance to students of color, which was desperately lacking in the Los Angeles public school system.

"Success in golf depends less on strength of the body than upon strength of the mind and character." Everyday, EYM is challenging its students to strengthen their mind and character to be better leaders, doers, and stewards of humanity. So support us like you do the game.
