A Message from Lexie and Charles Barker
Now in our 28th year, we celebrate our commitment to our region’s youth with our annual Creech-Malbon Memorial Golf Tournament. As we come together to enjoy a round of golf we continue our important work to promote the health, well-being and education of the young people who will eventually become our future leaders in the community. We are proud to support this next generation of leaders, and I’m especially proud to welcome my granddaughter, Lexie Barker as part of our automotive family and look forward to her continuing to support the ongoing success of our Champion for Kids initiatives.
It is with your support and participation that we have been able to realize our goals and are able to donate to so many important organizations that focus on the wellness of our area youth. We established Champions for Kids in 1994 to bring together area business leaders who, like me, believe that with success comes responsibility to give back. And that is exactly we have done with your help. Over the years our contributions have reached over $4 million, and this year we hope to surpass our goal with our Charity Auction and Tournament.
I thank you in advance and look forward to seeing you and your foursome on the links.
Lexie Barker & Charles Barker
Our Mission
Charles Barker Champions for Kids is a Section 501(c)(3) charitable organization committed to the belief that the future of our community is dependent on the physical, emotional, and educational well-being of our youth. Our mission is to raise funds in support of community programs, education and scholarships for youth in Hampton Roads.
As has been the tradition, we do not charge administration fees, so nearly all proceeds go towards programs in the areas of counseling for teens, drug and alcohol awareness, educational scholarships, and community mentorship programs. Our goal is to resource and assist the many Hampton Roads organizations dedicated to making a deep and sustaining difference in the lives of our children.
