Golf Tournament
The invitational golf tournament proceeds benefit Antelope Valley Medical Center’s Greatest Need. Over the past 20 years, the golf tournament has successfully raised nearly $2 million for important health initiatives related to behavioral health, emergency department, neonatal intensive care unit and many more.
The goal of the golf tournament is to raise funds to support enhanced healthcare options for the Antelope Valley, and surrounding communities. Every dollar raised helps make a significant difference. Whether you are a novice or experienced golfer, you will enjoy a day of play while raising money for a great cause.
Foundation Gala
Each year, the foundation’s board of directors and gala committee choose a hospital department in need to support enhanced healthcare options. Since its inception in 2009, the foundation has raised more than $1.7 million supporting programs such as the Women and Infants Pavilion, Cardiac Cath Lab Services, Pediatric Unit, Emergency Department and many more.

Tiny Footprint Keepsakes
The Tiny Footprints program provides beautifully crafted keepsake medallions and sparkling crystal ornaments to parents and family members of babies born at AVMC's Women and Infants Pavilion. Each keepsake is engraved with a child's tiny footprint to commemorate their arrival. All proceeds from these keepsakes go towards supporting the Antelope Valley Medical Center's Level IIIB Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). This initiative helps fund the purchase of life-saving medical equipment, ensuring that the NICU is well-equipped to provide exceptional care to its tiniest patients.
