Golf to Stop Soldier Suicide: More Than a Round of Golf

At Real Estate Cousins, we believe that real estate is what we do, but people are why we do it.

That belief extends far beyond buying and selling homes. It means showing up for our community, supporting meaningful causes, and using our platform to make a difference where it matters most.

On September 11, 2026, we're honored to partner with Pathways to Peace for the Golf to Stop Soldier Suicide outing at Willow Brook Golf Course in Byron. Together, we're working to raise awareness and critical funding for Stop Soldier Suicide, an organization dedicated to reducing the number of military veterans and active-duty service members lost to suicide.

Why This Cause Matters

The men and women who have served our country have made incredible sacrifices. While many return home carrying visible reminders of their service, countless others carry invisible wounds that often go unnoticed.

Every veteran deserves hope, support, and access to the resources they need.

That's why organizations like Stop Soldier Suicide exist—to provide life-saving mental health services, personalized support, and intervention for veterans and service members facing some of life's darkest moments.

By supporting this event, we're standing beside those who have stood for us.

Why We're Partnering with Pathways to Peace

Pathways to Peace has become a driving force in bringing our community together around this mission.

Their heart for serving veterans, educating our community, and creating opportunities to make a tangible impact aligns perfectly with the values we strive to live out every day at Real Estate Cousins.

Together, we believe that when a community comes together with a shared purpose, incredible things can happen.

This golf outing isn't simply about playing 18 holes.

It's about starting conversations.

It's about remembering those we've lost.

It's about supporting those who still need us.

And it's about giving hope.

Every golfer, volunteer, sponsor, and donation matters.

Together, we're making a difference—one life at a time.

Better Together

Community isn't built by one person.

It's built by people who choose to care.

This event represents what we love most about our community—neighbors, businesses, organizations, and volunteers coming together for something bigger than themselves.

We're incredibly grateful to everyone who has volunteered, sponsored, donated, or committed to playing.

Together, we're doing more than hosting a golf outing, we're helping save lives.

We hope you'll join us at Willow Brook Golf Course on September 11 as we come together to support our military heroes and their families.

Because every conversation matters, every connection matters, and every life is worth fighting for.
