Welcome to the Alex English

Celebrity Golf Tournament

I would like to welcome you to our Celebrity Golf Tournament. Each year we raise funds to contribute directly to children and families in need. In partnership with Family Promise of the Midlands, we will raise funds to help families experiencing homelessness in their quest to achieve sustainable independence.

This year, I am reestablishing my own non-profit foundation. Let’s Share Foundation will have multiple charitable efforts that contribute funds to feed, heal, shelter, educate, inspire, enlighten, and nurture people of every age, gender, race, and socioeconomic status. 

The ultimate goal of Let’s Share Foundation is to foster civic engagement and leadership, drive economic growth, and strengthen the fabric of our local and national communities. 

My team and I will donate our time, talents, and passion to the unserved and underserved. Let's Share Foundation will provide “quality of life for all people” through the distribution of resources and support for those who may not be able to achieve it themselves.

Thank you for your continued support!

 Sincerely,

Alex English
