CHINO HILLS, CA :: On Monday, August 25, Hope International University hosted its 19th Annual HIU GOLF CHALLENGE at the Western Hills Country Club. Our generous donors and sponsors teamed up to give nearly $50,000 to help fund student scholarships and departmental programs. To date, HIU’s tournament has raised more than $1,000,000 to benefit Hope students.

Participants enjoyed the beautiful Carbon Canyon setting, clear blue skies, and friendly fellowship throughout the day, which included a putting contest and opportunities to win great prizes. Following the round, the participants convened at Cedar Creek in the Brea foothills for a fun and delicious awards dinner. The HIU Royals Men's and Women's Golf Teams served as ambassadors throughout the event. 

The HIU community extends deep gratitude to all who came out this year to support the University and our students. Special thanks to our generous sponsors who made the 2025 HIU Golf Challenge a great success:
