Delta Dental golf support helped bring a youth-focused community together in 2026. Delta Dental of Washington served as a cash sponsor of the Marcus Trufant Believe in Me Charity Golf Tournament. The event took place on July 27 at Canterwood Golf & Country Club in Gig Harbor, Washington.
Golf was part of the day, but students were at the heart of its purpose. For that reason, we thank Delta Dental of Washington for backing the gathering. Its support helped create a place for people to learn about the cause and take part.


How Delta Dental golf support helped
A successful community event needs partners who are willing to help. For example, cash sponsors provide resources that support the work of bringing an event together. Then golfers, volunteers, and donors add their own time and care.
Delta Dental of Washington joined that effort at Canterwood. Its sponsorship helped make the tournament possible. As a result, guests had a shared place to support the education missions of Believe in Me and the Trufant Family Foundation.
That kind of help matters before, during, and after the final round. First, it supports the gathering itself. In addition, it gives a youth cause a place in the wider community. We are grateful for that commitment.
Helping students look beyond the cost
Students bring different hopes to life after high school. For instance, one may plan to attend college. Another may want to learn a skilled trade. Yet the cost of tuition, books, or tools can make either path hard to start.
Scholarships can reduce part of that burden. In turn, students can have more room to build skills and work toward their goals. Support can also show a young person that their plans deserve care.
Believe in Me’s scholarships support students pursuing college and career training. Likewise, the Trufant Family Foundation works to widen access to higher education. The golf series brought people together around these shared goals.
