This summer, we're excited to highlight an incredible local event that embodies the spirit of giving back – the Matt Brown Foundation Golf Tournament. For the fifth consecutive year, this beloved tournament returns to Walpole Country Club, and it's shaping up to be their most impactful event yet.
Making a Real Difference
The Matt Brown Foundation has been quietly changing lives in our community. Throughout 2024 alone, they distributed an impressive $130,000 in grants, making it their most successful year to date. These funds have directly supported life-changing purchases including:
2 handicap accessible vans
A standing frame
An overhead lift
And many other essential items

A Mission That Matters
The foundation's mission is deeply personal and profoundly important: helping individuals with spinal cord injuries live fuller, more empowered lives. Every donation provides crucial support and gives local businesses incredible visibility in front of a passionate, engaged community.
Get Involved
One of the tournament's most exciting traditions is their raffle and silent auction. This year, golfers and supporters can bid on an amazing array of prizes, including:
🎁 Gift Certificates
🧺 Gift Baskets
🎫 Event Tickets
🛍️ Branded Merchandise and Goods
