Chairs for Charity Fundraiser

What do an octopus, sea turtle and Lilly Pulitzer have in common with tennis? Find out when you participate in our Chairs for Charity FUNraiser! The Chairs for Charity Program is a unique fundraiser to benefit our Adaptive Tennis Programs. South Florida artists were invited to design one-of-a-kind Adirondack chairs that are on display at the new Tennis & Pickleball Center.

Your generous donation will benefit our Wheelchair Tennis, Jamie's Angels and Love Serving Autism programs. These works of art are available for auction, with the highest bidder receiving a plaque to be placed on their selected chair.
