The CoreCivic Foundation raised $550,000 through its 31st Annual Charity Golf Classic held in Hermitage, Tennessee, on Oct. 6. These funds will be given to a group of 33 non-profit organizations supporting formerly incarcerated individuals, victims of crime and abuse, and underserved youth.

"For more than 30 years, this event has allowed us to make a meaningful difference in our community," said Tony Grande, CoreCivic Charitable Foundation Chairman. "As we continue to see growth in the Greater Nashville area, our non-profit partners face the ongoing challenge of meeting the needs of such a growing population. We recognize these needs, and it is important that we continue to support these organizations so they can equip our communities with crucial resources and care."
