Event Summary

Let Freedom Swing is an annual charity golf tournament hosted by Colorado Veterans Project, created to bring the community together in support of veterans and transitioning service members across Colorado. The 2022 tournament marked the second year of the event and represented a pivotal growth moment, combining a patriotic, high-energy golf experience with a mission centered on service, opportunity, and connection.

Designed to celebrate freedom, community, and the game of golf, Let Freedom Swing emphasized camaraderie, on-course engagement, and a welcoming tournament atmosphere. The event served as both a fundraiser and a community touchpoint—connecting golfers, sponsors, and supporters with Colorado Veterans Project’s ongoing work supporting veterans beyond their military service.

Why This Event Mattered

Colorado Veterans Project is dedicated to empowering veterans and transitioning service members by providing career development support, professional networking opportunities, and community-driven events that help veterans continue to thrive after service.
