Touchdown For Kids

Touchdown For Kids Touchdown for Kids is a golf outing put on by the St. Vincent Young Professionals Board supporting Peyton Manning Children's Hospital at St.

Vincent Hospital in Indianapolis, IN. Touchdown for Kids (TFK) was originally a giving circle for the St. Vincent Foundation and supporting the Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital (PMCH). TFK was founded in 2008 to provide young Indianapolis professionals an outlet to network with other like-minded individuals. We have transitioned into the newly created St. Vincent Young Professionals Board where

we will continue this mission as well as support for St. Vincent Hospital as a whole. We will continue to host our annual golf outing using the TFK branding and plan to expand our efforts to support St. Vincent with a new signature event coming in 2020. The annual Touchdown for Kids golf outing has supported vital causes at St.Vincent such as MRI goggles to distract kids while undergoing MRIs, important new technology to aid in the early detection of hearing loss in children, and pediatric palliative care, among others. Touchdown for Kids has also had an annual focus on raising funds and items for the Pediatric Art Therapy Program and the Child Life Program at the hospital. Through the Touchdown for Kids Golf Outing, the annual Christmas and Fall parties, and the various social events throughout the year, Touchdown for Kids has made a lasting impact on the health and well-being of the kids at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital—an impact which we hope to continue!

As the weather warms up, more of us will be enjoying time outdoors, whether it’s burning brush or gathering around a fire pit.

A quick reminder: never use gasoline to start or fuel a fire. It’s extremely dangerous and can lead to serious injuries.

Stay safe and enjoy the season! 🔥
