Mission

The Alexis Kaiser Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization established to help children and young adults with special needs. Since its inception the Foundation has raised more than $1 million which has been distributed to organizations assisting those with special needs including the Cerebral Palsy Foundation, SafePath, FOCUS, Jacob’s Ladder, The Sancutary of North Georgia, and many others. The Foundation was started in honor of Alexis Ensley Kaiser, who is the smallest of triplets, and was diagnosed with cerebral palsy shortly after birth. The Alexis Kaiser Foundation hosts a yearly fundraiser, Lexi’s Game Golf Tournament and Raffle, which is held the fourth Monday of each April. Other fundraisers, including an annual poker tournament, also raise funds for the Foundation.

Proceeds from the 2026 Poker Tournament will be directed to The Sanctuary of North Georgia (SONG), a community-focused residential program dedicated to supporting adults with developmental disabilities. The Sanctuary provides residents with different abilities a place to call home and is safe, affordable and encourages independent living. Residents receive the care they need and are offered daily activities and work options in an environment that fosters fellowship, community and friendship. Learn more https://sanctuaryofng.org/.

 

“What’s great about the Alexis Kaiser Foundation is they give back. All the money that they raise, they give to Jacobs Ladder, Young Life, Next Step, FOCUS, LecoTech, just to name a few… And Lexi motivates me. It’s so easy for me to do what I do to help Lexi and her foundation… because it’s a blessing in my life. It just makes me realize how blessed I am and how fortunate I am to have a company now to go above and beyond and help raise money for such a great cause. We try to make our annual poker fundraiser a fun event for everyone, even if you don’t play poker, you can come and socialize, meet Lexi and her wonderful family and enjoy raffles and the silent auction. We have food and drinks for everyone, and we really try to create a warm environment to raise money for this wonderful cause. It’s an event I look forward to every year, and I am honored to be able to put this on for the Foundation.”
