Experience Polo For A Great Cause
The Event
Charity Polo has been a Lowcountry tradition for over 20 years. Formerly sponsored by the Rotary Club of Okatie-Bluffton the event is now jointly sponsored by the Lowcountry Foundation for Wounded Military Heroes (LFWMH) and the 200 Club of the Coastal Empire. Both charitable organizations serving the Lowcountry community and those who sacrificed fighting for our safety, our freedoms and our way of life.
A Simple Mission
We are focused on making a positive difference for heroes in the Lowcountry community. Net proceeds from the event will be benefiting injured members and their families -- military veterans, firefighters, law enforcement officers injured in the line of duty.
