Description

Links 4 Luke Golf Tournament is the annual fundraising event benefiting the Luke 18: 1 Foundation. Our event takes place on Monday, April 24, 2023 in Southlake, TX at Timarron Country Club.  Along with our golf tournament we have a silent auction that is available online that allows our participants and well as people who are not present to support our cause from anywhere across the country. Our goal is to raise as much money as possible each year to fund necessary research efforts to ultimately help find a cure for Spinal Muscular Atrophy.

Since 2018, the Luke 18:1 Foundation has been able to donate over $1.5 million to Cure SMA to fund programs, give to research, and provide equipment needed to aid those living with SMA.  The foundation will launch a new program this summer at the Annual Cure SMA Conference to provide laptops and technology to those with SMA so we can all stay connected and engage with other kids too. 

So much progress has been made over the years especially within the last 6.  We have 3 FDA approved treatments, SMA is on the new born screening in 49 states, it is included in genetic testing across the country and we have more therapies on the way. We have come so far, but we aren’t done yet. We still have more work to do so we are actively seeking donations to help raise critical funds to continue to pave the way within the SMA community.  Together, we can make a difference and we will #findacureforsma.
