The Grin Kids Charity & Celebrity Open was established in 2003. The purpose of this weekend-long event is to unite in a fun, interactive environment and raise money for the most precious resource of all, our children! ACE & TJ’s Grin Kids is a non-profit, 501c3 charity, created by Charlotte, NC based morning show personalities ACE & TJ in January of 2000. The name of the organization comes from ACE & TJ’s morning show motto, “You Grin, You’re In!”
 
ACE & TJ’s Grin Kids is designed to enhance the lives of children, ages five through twelve, who are terminally ill and chronically handicapped in the listening area. Each year, ACE & TJ’s Grin Kids affords as many children as financially possible a Disney World vacation with their parents and siblings. Because of their special needs and financial strain, this is an experience that many children and families would not be able to know without the help of ACE & TJ’s Grin Kids.
 

We need as much support and assistance possible to make this trip a reality for the next group of Grin Kids. We ask local, regional and national companies, including individuals in the Charlotte and Lake Norman, NC areas to contribute. Our goal of reaching 1 million dollars is quickly becoming a reality. 2011 marks the 8th annual Grin Kids Charity & Celebrity Open, which has already raised a total of $505,700.00 for the Grin Kids Charity. This tournament is a wonderful experience, convenient way to contribute to a great cause and a way to become active in the community, networking with corporate executives, high profile celebrities and athletes.

100% of the net proceeds will benefit Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids, with donations and sponsorships being tax deductible as permitted by law.
