"I am especially grateful to the sponsors and volunteers who help make this tournament a great success," Carr said, adding that without the support of the businesses and individuals in our area the fundraiser would not be possible.

North Greenville Crisis Ministry offers temporary assistance, including food, clothing and crisis funds, to individuals and families who live in northern Greenville County. In 2016, the organization served more than 3,000 families.
