The Queen City Ivy and Pearls Foundation is proud to present the Vicki Foster Charity Golf Classic on Sept. 12, honoring the extraordinary life and legacy of Vicki Foster, who was a member of our Foundation’s board of directors and a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.®, Rho Psi Omega Chapter. Vicki also served with distinction in law enforcement, rising to the rank of Assistant Chief of Police in Charlotte, NC, an achievement reflecting her exceptional leadership.

We are deeply appreciative to have permission from her family to rename our tournament in her honor as we continue to focus on many of the initiatives and causes that were important to Vicki such as strengthening and uplifting families, mentoring women and empowering youth.

We are currently seeking tournament sponsors and have many opportunities from $10,000 to $250, as well sponsorships to provide prizes and in-kind donations. For more information and to receive a sponsorship package, please email us at: [email protected].

Sponsorship benefits include:
• Networking and access to an influential and growing audience with purchasing power and decision-making authority
• Co-branded and collaborative marketing opportunities
• Partnerships that increase sponsor reach and long-term value

Proceeds from this fundraiser will support our service programs, provide college scholarships and help us to acquire a facility from which we can better serve our community. Thank you for your support and consideration.
