Volunteer
At the Grandview Kids Foundation, we host several highly successful events throughout the year. We are also lucky to be chosen as a charity to support for many third-party fundraisers in our community. The Foundation’s dedicated volunteers play crucial roles in making them successful. From assisting with registration and silent auctions to leading children’s activities, volunteers enhance the experience for our guests. By becoming a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to connect with our compassionate community of supporters.
We are deeply grateful for the invaluable support of our exceptional community partners, who organize various third-party fundraisers to benefit our organization. In addition to these collaborative efforts, we proudly host our own signature events, such as the annual Golf Fore Grandview Kids Charity Golf Classic and our esteemed awards gala, Dream Big, Dream Brighter: Making the Future a Brighter Place, in partnership with Elexicon Energy.
