June 2026
Think you’ve got what it takes to play 100 holes of golf in a single day? Let’s find out!
100 Holes for the Homeless is no ordinary golf outing—it’s a powerful way to make a difference for our neighbors experiencing homelessness. This unique event supports Wheeler Mission, and instead of a traditional entry fee, participants raise funds to take part.
Our goal this year is bold—we’re aiming to raise $85,000. That amount could help provide life-changing care through our many programs, all of which are offered free of charge to those we serve. Your support through this event helps make that possible.
You can register solo or team up with a partner to take on the challenge together. Not a golfer? No problem—volunteers are essential to making this event a success! From check-in to course support, there are plenty of ways to get involved.
Ready to swing into action? Click below and join us!

Become a sponsor for 100 Holes for the Homeless and help Wheeler Mission provide meals, shelter, and hope to people in need. Your support creates real impact and helps build a stronger, more caring community!
