The goal of the Hope and Hold'em Celebrity Tournament, and Casino Night is to raise money to provide assistance to Arizona’s youth as they " Age Out" of Foster Care. The term ‘aging-out’ means that upon their 18th birthday, the Foster child’s belongings are packed up, the adults they have been living with say goodbye and the door shuts behind them. They are on their own and very much alone. They have no job, no family and no idea how to handle their new independence. Imagine if this were your son or daughter. It’s a very scary situation
Nearly 10 percent of the 6400 children that exited Foster Care have ‘Aged-Out”. Our mission is to assist them with housing, education, job skills, and to mentor them with life skills, and provide resources they need to succeed in life. Supporting the Hope and Hold'em Celebrity Tournament, and Casino Night, shows your employees and members of the community that your company cares is committed to improving the lives of Arizona Youth.
