"Light Up To Live has teamed up with Operation Rock the Troops with a mission: to assist our military men and women both in active duty and returning home, who are suffering from conditions such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)," said Randall Reed, founder of Light up to Live Foundation. "Our military men and women give so much. Sherry and our family wanted to do all we could to add a little light, relief, and a path back home."
To kick off the trifecta of events, the Valor Golf Tournament begins on Friday, September 21, 2018, at the Cowboys Golf Club in Grapevine, Texas. The event features a round of golf, complimentary continental breakfast and lunch, player gift bag, contest holes, awards and prizes.
