Description

Tennis Serves Others, a 501c3, invites you to support our annual upcoming Grand Gala & Tounament to serve others in need in our local communities and beyond. TSO is a member based organization that brings tennis ladies together to use their passion for tennis to serve others in need. This once a year event is a member favorite as 80 ladies compete on the tennis court and 100 plus attend our annual Gala. Throughout the year, TSO grants donations to help youth tennis programs that are underfunded, supports orphans and foster programs to provide basic necessities such as food and clothing, helps families in need during the holidays, and now issues academic scholoraships to young women in need. With our Tennis Supplies Others program and Tennis Soles for Others we provide basic neccesities and gently used tennis shoes to local homeless shelters. 

In addition, each year, our members select two worthy organizations that we raise funds to support. This year we are assisting Foundation for Women Warriors and The Thomas House Family Shelter. FWW serves women veterans by providing access to affordable housing, childcare support, employment assistance, leadership development and a strong support system. The THFS is a rare and invaluable resource providing safe, stable housing and essential services for Orange County's unhoused, at-risk, and low-income families - allowing them to stay together. Families receive counseling, academic tutoring, financial planning and life skills workshops during their one year stay. 

Our anticipated event will take place on June 7th (Gala) and June 14th (Tournament) at Laguna Niguel Racquet Club.

Since 2016, TSO has assisted more than 80 individuals, groups and organizations in need making a significant difference in our communities. Our motto is to Play Tennis, Serve Others and to Love All. Together we can help even more.  Through your donation, all the proceeds will be used to assist others in need as we are 100% volunteer organization.

Will you please help us?  With your donated aution item, you will partner with us to serve others in need. 

Together we can make a difference!

Love all,

Carol Walsh
