This summer, the Bobby Jackson Foundation is back at it, hosting its annual charity golf tournament in Rancho Murieta on July 27th. Former Sacramento Kings player and current assistant coach Bobby Jackson is leading the charge, this time with a laser focus on child abuse—an often-overlooked issue that deserves more attention. It’s more than just another round of golf; it’s an opportunity to directly contribute to a cause that can change lives.
With a lineup of local basketball legends, including Mike Bibby and Doug Christie, participants will not only enjoy a day on the green but also have the thrill of golfing with their idols. As Bobby puts it, every entry fee of $500 goes right back into the community, supporting organizations that aim to help abused children. The foundation has a solid track record of philanthropy, making waves with initiatives like “Shop with a Cop,” where underprivileged kids experience the joy of shopping with local authorities.
What’s better than playing golf and making a difference? Bobby and his team certainly think they’ve struck gold with this combination. So grab your clubs, rally your friends, and prepare to swing for a cause that hits home—because who wouldn’t want to have fun while championing change?
