The Challenge at Trump National Golf Club is The YouthQuest Foundation’s signature fundraising event. This annual tournament is vital to the success of our mission to provide life-changing opportunities for America’s at-risk youth.
We’ve held charity tournaments every year since 2006 and our goal is to make this year’s event – on August 12 at the world-class Trump National Golf Club, Washington, DC — the biggest and best one yet.

The funds this tournament raises will help us expand the great programs we’ve been telling you about for the last few months, including our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) education project.
At last year’s tournament, we presented a check for $5,000 to support the Maryland Freestate ChalleNGe Academy. Bobby Stewart, who graduated from the Academy in 2000, played in the tournament and spoke during the awards ceremony about the dramatic difference Freestate made for him as a troubled teen. Bobby had given up on high school, but the Academy run by the National Guard Youth ChalleNGe Program provided the structure and discipline he needed to earn his diploma and go on to success in the auto dealership business.
This year, the Freestate ChalleNGe Academy became the home of our first 3D printing project for at-risk youth.
Our supporters come back to play in the tournament year after year because they know their donations help kids who are in trouble turn their lives around. On top of that, they get to enjoy a day of fun at a club few golfers ever have the chance to experience.
The event begins with a trick shot demonstration by Golf Entertainer Brad Denton, followed by a shotgun start for the foursomes and their celebrity players. Lunch is served on the course and the day wraps up with a reception and awards ceremony.
We’re pleased that so many of our regular players have signed up already. Now we need to add some newcomers so we can double our numbers from last year and fill both of the magnificent Trump National courses in Potomac Falls, Va.
