Why This Day Matters.
After sustaining three spinal cord injuries in 21 months, Tom Smith experienced firsthand what so many individuals and families face: inequitable access to the specialized care that makes the difference. Local doctors prepared him for life in a wheelchair, but it was a personal connection to the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis that changed his trajectory.
Through his recovery journey, Tom realized that access shouldn’t depend on who you know. That realization became the catalyst for co-founding the Thomas E. Smith Foundation with his friend and teammate Tucker Mullin in 2010.
For 16 years, this tournament has fueled our mission to close that gap: advancing innovative care, compassionate support, and equitable access to the resources that change lives.
We believe progress happens when care meets possibility, and we see it every day in the lives we touch.
