The Kathy B. Davis Foundation is pleased to introduce our newest program, The Kathy B. Davis Special Clubs for Special Golfers Program. This initiative refurbishes and custom-fits used, donated golf clubs for Special Olympian golfers from various counties across the state. We extend our sincere gratitude to our volunteers, who diligently supervise the program and manage the distribution of the clubs. Within a short period, 25 sets of clubs have already been ordered.

THE KATHY B. DAVIS FOUNDATION, a 501c3 organization, was established in 2011 in memory of Kathy Davis, a loving wife to her husband, Dave, devoted mother to her sons, Chris, Eric and Matt, and passionate advocate for people with intellectual and developmental challenges.  To honor her legacy, Dave established the foundation with a single mission:

"To support and create life enhancing opportunities for individuals with intellectual/developmental challenges.”
