SEMA’s Automotive Restoration Market Organization (ARMO) is currently leading the other councils in raising funds to benefit childrens' charities.
ARMO and the Hot Rod Industry Alliance (HRIA) are leading the momentum behind the inaugural SEMA Charity Golf Tournament, and they’ve challenged other councils to follow suit.

Slots in the golf tourney are also available by becoming an event sponsor, ranging from the Bronze Sponsor level ($1,500 includes two tournament entries) up to the Title Sponsor ($25,000 includes eight tournament entries).
The golf tournament is scheduled for July 27 at Strawberry Farms Golf Club in Irvine, California, with the SEMA Installation Banquet & Gala Fundraiser to follow in the evening at the nearby Hyatt Regency Irvine.
