Sponsorships Available for Jimmy Simpson Foundation’s Inaugural Golf Tournament May 24 Benefitting the Expansion of Safehaven, Facility for Brain-Injured Adults

Spots for golf teams to participate in the event at Lookout Mountain Golf Club are still available; limited to 90 golfers.

ROCK SPRING, Ga. (April 16, 2021) – The Jimmy Simpson Foundation’s Inaugural Golf Tournament supporting the Foundations of the Future program, which is a capital campaign benefiting the building of a new Safehaven facility that will allow the residence for individuals with brain injuries to continue to grow, is scheduled to take place on Monday, May 24 at the Lookout Mountain Golf Club.

Sponsorship opportunities range from Ring of Honor Sponsors for $100 to Event Sponsors for $2,500.

“There are multiple sponsorship options so that everyone interested has an opportunity,” said Vickie Hodge, CEO of the Jimmy Simpson Foundation. “No matter which sponsorship option an organization chooses, they will be making a huge difference in the Chattanooga/North Georgia region’s capacity for providing long-term care for brain-injured adults and their families.”

Participation for this year’s event is limited to 90 golfers, but there are still spots available for teams to sign up for $500.

An added bonus for golfers is that they will be able to have the opportunity to win a new car from Jackson Chevrolet Buick GMC if they make a hole-in-one.

All proceeds from the tournament will go toward the construction of Safehaven’s 32,000 square foot expansion, which will house 18 private residence rooms, a chapel, a screened-in porch, a two-story activity room and a centralized nurse’s station.

“This new facility will allow us to provide our residents with new opportunities that our current space cannot due to its small size,” Hodge added. “Having 18 private rooms is something we have dreamed about for a long time and knowing this is a possibility that is beginning to come to life brings us so much joy.”

ABOUT JIMMY SIMPSON FOUNDATION - ROCK SPRING, GA

The Jimmy Simpson Foundation is dedicated to providing the best quality care for the brain injury community. It was founded as a 501c3 organization by Carol Simpson after her husband, Jimmy, suffered an anoxic brain injury as a result from a fall out of a hospital bed after surgery. While searching for long term placement for Jimmy, it was difficult to find an environment that fostered individuality as well as provided a safe home environment. As with many non-profit organizations, the family saw a need within the brain injury community and stepped up to meet that need.
