Description
We are thrilled to announce our inaugural Pickleball Fundraiser for the Donald Driver Foundation.
We invite you to join us at Lake Geneva Tennis and Pickleball in Lake Geneva, WI for a fun-filled day of pickleball, fundraising, and a chance to hang out with Packer’s Hall of Famer Donald Driver.
Founded by Donald and Betina Driver, the mission of the Donald Driver Foundation is to display strong hands, strong minds and loving hearts to serve as a hand-up, not a handout. For 24 years, the foundation has provided underprivileged children and families with the necessary resources in relation to education, workforce development and health and wellness.
