The PLeace Awaken Celebrity & Living Legends Golf Tour is a series of celebrity golf events, initiated to bring people of influence from entertainment, sports and politics together for the betterment of those who have been overlooked and for those who have lost their voice or are too despondent to raise it anymore.

These events create a platform for an international round table and think-tank … it’s a chance to take to the course and sit around the table with experts and pioneers of working solutions in front of a highly influential international audience of celebrities, dignitaries and world economic leaders, who’re hoping to help create positive change at grass root level in different areas around the world.
