You are the Key!

One of Key of Hope’s foundational programs is “Kidz Klub,” which started in 2008 with 17 children. Today, Key of Hope is a flourishing ministry, with over 2,000 children attending each weekend. For many children, it serves as their first encounter with Key of Hope - some come just to receive a meal, while others are invited by a friend - but each child leaves with a promise of hope through a safe environment, games, and a Bible lesson, all made possible by Key of Hope’s incredible staff.

Because of the generous support of our sponsors, who help make this event possible, all proceeds directly impact children in Africa - including those supported by your foursome.

Each foursome sponsors 21 children to attend our weekly Saturday Kids Club for an entire year!

Kids Club is the starting point of lifelong discipleship relationships, helping children believe they have hope and a future. Your participation in this event is key to making that possible!

FAQs

What is a scramble?

In a scramble format, teams are made of 4 members where each person hits their ball throughout the match. After everyone tees off, players choose one spot to play off. This process continues until the ball is holed at which point, that score will be used for the team.
