Game On for a Great Cause: Play It Forward 2025

Get your game on and get ready for a day of community spirit, friendly competition, and giving back!

Planning is underway for Play It Forward, the Fourth Annual sport event to benefit Neighbors Who Care on Saturday, March 29, 2025. 

IronOaks Sun Lakes community representatives have begun planning the 2025 Play It Forward event, and offer a warm invitation to enthusiasts from area communities and Chandler for a true community fun event that includes a hamburger/hot dog lunch thanks to sponsor Cox Communications.

The event will once again offer opportunities to play and for the first time, softball, billiards, and golf have been added for fun play. The group is requesting that those who cannot play, consider making a donation to the tournament on behalf of Neighbors Who Care, the benefiting charity. Arizona residents can make a donation on behalf of Play It Forward to satisfy the Arizona Tax Credit. In 2024, Play It Forward raised $38,000. The goal is set for $40,000 in 2025. All funds are directed to the mission of Neighbors Who Care helping more than 600 clients to safely age in place each year.

All play will begin at 8 am and will last for roughly 50 minutes–players may play multiple times for an additional $20. 

Sponsors are being sought for banners and tee boxes, and also for having a table on the day of until they fill up. If your company is interested in having a banner at the site, contact Sheryl Keeme at sheryl@neighborswhocare.com or call 480-895-7133.
