Cook Children’s Announces Purpose-Driven Partnership with Professional Golfer Tom Hoge
Cook Children’s is proud to announce a new sponsorship agreement with PGA Tour professional golfer, Tom Hoge. This multi-year partnership aligns our passion for excellence and giving back to the community. 
Hoge, a Texas Christian University alumnus and resident of Fort Worth with his wife Kelly, has cemented a place on the national golf scene, following his initial win on TOUR at the famed 2022 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. His dedication and talent mirror Cook Children’s commitment to providing exceptional health care to children and families. The Hoge family are dedicated supporters of Cook Children’s patient support services, making this a true purpose-driven partnership. Their shared values and Tom’s desire for active involvement with patients solidify the foundation of this meaningful relationship.
“Cook Children’s is one of the many reasons Kelly and I are proud to call Fort Worth home,” Hoge commented. “We are immensely proud to have a best-in-class opportunity for children to receive health care right in our backyard. Anything I can do to further the mission and platform of Cook Children’s through this partnership will be a great honor.”
Fans can look forward to seeing Tom sporting Cook Children’s logo on his left arm shirtsleeve as he competes throughout the PGA Tour season. He will also be participating in Cook Children’s annual BedPan Open on Tuesday, May 21, just before the 2024 Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club.
“The Hoge family’s continued support of our patients makes this partnership a natural fit,” said Grant Harris, Senior Vice President, Chief Development Officer, Cook Children’s Health Foundation. “Our national recognition as a premier pediatric health care organization has grown parallel to Tom’s recognition on the PGA tour, and we’re thrilled to reach these new heights with such a dedicated partner on our team.”
As Hoge continues to ascend the golf rankings, Cook Children’s continues to garner national recognition and awards for health care excellence. This partnership creates a ripple effect of positive impact within the Fort Worth community and beyond. Join us in celebrating this exciting partnership and wishing Tom a very happy birthday on May 25!
