Golf for good means care where students need it most.

At KIPP Sharpstown, Andre Williams met with his Legacy therapist during the school day after losing his grandmother earlier this year.

For his mother, Anderra, having care on campus meant she could support her son without missing work.

All proceeds from the Legacy Community Health Golf Classic on October 12 benefit School-Based Health Care, helping more students access medical and behavioral health services on campus.

Every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.

Supporting students from their very first day of school through graduation.

At Legacy Community Health, we know that when students are healthy, they’re better able to learn, grow, and succeed. That’s why we’re proud of our longtime partnership with YES Prep Public Schools, helping bring healthcare directly to students where they already spend their day.

Through our School-Based Health Care program, students have access to:

🩺 Primary and preventive care
💙 Behavioral health support
📋 Vaccinations, physicals, and wellness visits
🏫 Convenient care right on campus

This partnership helps families spend less time worrying about transportation, scheduling appointments, or missing work and more time focusing on what matters most: helping their children thrive.

Over the years, we've watched students grow not only academically, but also in their confidence, ability to advocate for their health, and overall well-being. Together with YES Prep, we're helping create healthier futures for students and families across our community.

Because every child deserves access to care, support, and the opportunity to succeed.
