Each year, Burning Sands hosts an 18-hole golf tournament to raise funds to support its mission. This is our major fundraiser, and proceeds from the golf tournament go toward the Burning Sands endowment to provide scholarships for football players.

"While a student at Virginia Union University (’94), I played on the golf team. I enjoyed traveling and competing in the CIAA. I look forward to assisting Burning Sands in any way to continue to improve the student athletes’ experience at VUU."
