About Us
Golf Brought Us Together. The Children Give Us a Reason to Return.
A Round Among Friends Became a Mission.
Swing for Children of Venezuela began in 2024 as a simple round of golf among friends who wanted to help children in Venezuela.
The idea grew. More players joined, businesses stepped forward, and what started within South Florida’s Venezuelan community became an annual tournament bringing together people from different backgrounds around one shared purpose.
The United States is our home, and South Florida is where our community comes together to create meaningful support for children in Venezuela.
Now entering our third consecutive year, the idea remains simple: Play together. Raise together. Make the day count.
What We Stand For
Community
What began among friends continues to grow through golfers, volunteers, businesses, sponsors and supporters united by a shared commitment to children in Venezuela.
Impact
Through the tournament, our community supports programs focused on education, nutrition, health and opportunities for children to move forward.
