Southern Highlands Charitable Foundation

Giving Back to the Community.

The Southern Highlands Golf Club Charitable Foundation provides support for a wide variety of programs designed to improve the quality of life for children, teens, and women in need in Las Vegas. Olympia Companies, L.L.C. is committed to the well-being of the community and has invested millions of dollars in many worthwhile organizations.

Southern Highlands Golf Club hosts and contributes to numerous charitable fundraising golf tournaments and events, including the annual Governor?s Black-Tie Invitational. Hosted by the Governor of Nevada and Southern Highlands President Garry Goett, this memorable event has become one of the most successful charitable golf tournaments and galas in the Las Vegas Valley, featuring world-renowned entertainment and cuisine. In 2010, the event raised more than $900,000 to benefit the Southern Highlands Boys & Girls Club, Assistance League of Las Vegas, Candlelighters for Childhood Cancer, Opportunity Village, Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation, Children's Heart Foundation, Break the Chain Foundation, and Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Nevada.

Since its inception, contributions on behalf of the Foundation and Olympia Companies have raised over $9 million and have benefited thousands of area residents through dozens of Nevada nonprofit organizations. Southern Highlands Golf Club is the home course for the UNLV golf team and proudly hosts the Collegiate Masters.
