To further its mission of making a positive difference in the lives of disadvantaged women and children and others with extraordinary needs, The Rushing Family Trust holds the Captain Woody Rushing Golf Tournament each year. Proceeds from the 17th annual tournament, held at Kimbeland Country Club last October, made the Hope Children's Home donation possible. A total of $12,000 will be donated to 12 organizations from the 2015 tournament proceeds.
