The Wee One Foundation helps families of golf course industry professionals who have suffered a catastrophic illness and need financial assistance. The organization has given out more than $300,000 to needy families in just over five years. Last year’s inaugural Michigan event at Indianwood G&CC raised more than $12,000 for the Foundation.
