DANA POINT, CA – The 2025 San Manuel Golf Tournament brought together over 920 golfers, representing hundreds of partner organizations, to raise $450,000 for six deserving charities. Over the past 26 years, Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation and Yaamava’ Resort & Casino have welcomed companies, agencies and tribal partners to join this tradition of collective giving, generating over $4.5 million in support of more than 70 charitable organizations.
Each charity supported through the 2025 San Manuel Golf Tournament received a $75,000 unrestricted gift, offering them flexibility to invest in areas of greatest need to support of their mission. The recipients were thoughtfully selected to reflect the tribe’s spirit of Yawa’ – a Serrano value meaning “to act on one’s beliefs” – and to drive lasting impact for seven generations within the pillars of education, economic development, health, and cultural preservation.
The 2025 San Manuel Golf Tournament recipients include Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County & the Inland Empire; California Fire Foundation; California Indian Education For All (CIEFA); Home Base; Tribal Oak Tree Foster Family Agency; and Restoring Ancestral Winds, Inc.
