Golf Classic

The Small Steps Golf Classic is a premier charity golf tournament in Houston held each fall at Champions Golf Club and Northgate Country Club.

Since the first tournament in 1996, the Golf Classic has raised more than $18 million for Small Steps Nurturing Center.
The Golf Classic is a first-class business entertainment event that is well known for the large number of great door prizes given away at the awards dinner following the tournament. In 2024, more than 80 corporations and individuals sponsored the Golf Classic in support of Houston’s economically at-risk children.
Registration for the 2025 Golf Classic is now open! Questions? Contact Lauren Latinkic at llatinkic@ssnc.org or 713-236-0330.
Small Steps Nurturing Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The difference between the amount of your payment and the amount of goods and services received may be deductible as a charitable contribution. We estimate the fair market value for the Golf Classic is $400 per person. Small Steps’ EIN is 76-0471755.
