Family Promise of Pickens County feels so deeply blessed to be wrapping up day two of the 18th Annual Charity Golf Classic! ⛳️✨

The Reserve at Lake Keowee Charitable Foundation does phenomenal work for our community—having raised over $3 Million since 2006 to lift up local organizations. Knowing that our time on the course directly impacts Family Promise and 20 other incredible 2026 outreach recipients—like Samaritan Health Clinic, Ripple of One, and the Oconee Humane Society—makes this entire event truly special. We are so proud to support such a beautiful mission! 🤝💚

A massive thank you to our incredible Family Promise volunteers who gave their time to make both days a success.
