Honoring 15 Years of Supporting Veterans and their Families

Tee It Up for the Troops Central Illinois will proudly celebrate a remarkable milestone in 2024. Fifteen years ago, a dedicated group of local volunteers embarked on a mission to make a difference in the lives of veterans and their families. Since those humble beginnings in 2009, the Central Illinois Tee It Up for the Troops Chapter has granted an impressive $880,000 to support veterans and their families and treated local veterans to more than 3300 therapeutic rounds of free golf and well-deserved recognition.

“We wish to thank all those in the community who have stood with us as a beacon of hope and support for those who have served our nation!” said Jeff Kolbus, Event Chair. “As we reflect on the past 14 years, we also look ahead with optimism and invite the entire community to join us in supporting our American heroes from all branches and all eras.”

Please consider joining us in honoring their sacrifice and ensuring they receive the support they need by donating, purchasing raffle tickets, or sponsoring our golf event on Monday, August 12th, 2024, at Mr. Hawley Country Club.
