Golfer Harold Varner III: From Fairways to Floodwaters

North Carolina, USASunday, October 6, 2024

Ever thought about what athletes do when they’re not competing? Well, meet Harold Varner III – a golfer who recently traded his clubs for rescue missions. When Hurricane Helene hit North Carolina, where he grew up, Varner saw it as a call to action. He spent days on the ground, helping out however he could.

At first, he didn’t want any videos or pictures taken. It was personal to him. But after seeing the sheer devastation, he realized people needed to know what was happening. So, he started sharing images and speaking up about the situation. Varner has been using his wealth from golf to support the relief efforts. He believes that winning can bring in more money to help even more people. It’s not just about donating cash; it’s also about being there for those who are grieving, offering comfort and hope.
