(Fort Myers, Fla. –September 4, 2025) — The Heights Foundation announces its tenth annual benefit golf tournament, Swing Fore The Kids, scheduled for Friday, September 19, at The Plantation Golf and Country Club. Proceeds from the event will support The Heights Center’s vital programs, which help build strong, self-sufficient families in the Harlem Heights neighborhood of Fort Myers.

Last year’s tournament raised more than $41,000. This year, organizers aim to surpass that amount to further support initiatives including AfterSchool and the Center’s enriching summer camp programs.

“The poverty rate for children in Harlem Heights is more than twice the county average,” said Kathryn Kelly, Founder and CEO of The Heights Foundation/The Heights Center. “This tournament will help support programs at The Heights Center which provide children with the tools they need to thrive.”

Sponsors include B&I Contractors, Quality Carpet + Flooring, Owen-Ames-Kimball, TRC Worldwide Engineering, RG Architects, Trane, Schoenfeld, Kyle & Associates, LLP, Axis Contracting Group, ONEDIGITAL, FineMark National Bank & Trust, Everhart Advisors and Acentria Insurance.  Additional sponsorships are available.

The event will begin with registration at 12:30 p.m., followed by a shotgun start at 1:30 p.m. After a day on the course, participants can enjoy a delicious dinner buffet and awards ceremony.

Golfers and sponsors are encouraged to register soon. A foursome is $650, and sponsorship opportunities—including golf packages and recognition—are available. The deadline for sponsorships is September 10, and golfer registration closes on September 12.
