Tee Off for a Cause: Black Belt Community Development Corporation Hosts 4th Annual Golf Classic
The Black Belt Community Development Corporation (BBCDC), in partnership with the SisterGolf Foundation, is proud to present the 4th Annual Golf Classic, set to take place on May 9th at 8 AM at Timberline Golf Club.
More than just a tournament, this event aims to drive real change for Alabama’s historic Black Belt region, supporting initiatives that enhance education, financial literacy, job training, and healthcare access.
A Swing Towards Progress
The Black Belt region, named for its rich soil, holds a deep historical significance but faces persistent economic challenges. BBCDC is dedicated to revitalizing these communities through targeted development programs, and the Golf Classic is crucial in funding these efforts. By participating, players contribute directly to initiatives that uplift individuals and businesses, creating lasting impact beyond the greens.
“The Golf Classic is more than just a day of sport; it’s an opportunity to invest in the future of the Black Belt region. Each swing taken on the course brings us one step closer to building stronger communities”.
SisterGolf Foundation: Driving Diversity & Inclusion

SisterGolf aligns perfectly with BBCDC’s mission of creating equitable opportunities by fostering confidence, networking opportunities, and professional growth.
