The As-One Foundation is proud to announce the “Sickle CELLebrity Golf Tournament,” taking place on Tuesday, September 19, 2023, at the picturesque Gus Wortham Park Golf Course, located at 7000 Capitol Street in Houston, Texas.

This star-studded event promises a day of excitement, camaraderie, and philanthropy like no other. Confirmed celebrity attendees include the legendary rapper Scarface, former Dallas Cowboy Broderick Thomas, former Houston Texan Jonathan Wells, former Houston Rocket Moochie Norris, and the sensational Rapper D-Red of SUC, among many more surprises in store! The ” Sickle CELLebrity Golf Tournament” is not just about swinging clubs and sinking putts; it’s also about making a significant impact on the lives of those affected by sickle cell disease. Sickle cell disease is a hereditary blood disorder that affects millions worldwide, and the As-One Foundation is committed to raising awareness and funds to support research and patient care.

“This is the first time that we are hosting a golf tournament so we want it to be very special,” said As one Foundation executive Director Tomia Austin. “Everything that we do is to honor the legacy of our founder’s brother, Devaughn, who died from Sickle Cell Trait. This event is no different. It is another way for us to continue to shine a light of this incurable illness and raise funds for our community projects in memory of Devaughn.”

In addition to the star-studded golf tournament, there will be a special Women’s Golf clinic hosted by Golf Women Mean Business. This clinic is an excellent opportunity for women of all skill levels to improve their golf game while networking with influential women in the golf industry.
