Why For A Good Turn?

Inspired by the life and legacy of Peter Thomas Hodo IV, who despite surviving a traumatic brain injury (TBI) continued to serve people in need through random acts of kindness during his recovery. The Foundation honors Thomas' legacy by inspiring others to initiate positive change within their communities. By championing the 'pay it forward' philosophy, the Foundation believes that specific and intentional good deeds can set off a powerful chain reaction of generosity, positivity, and perseverance.

Thomas was an avid and passionate car driver, hence the dual meaning of For A Good Turn.  His perseverance to graduate high school at the age of 21 as a TBI survivor - largely due to the encouragement and kindness of his business mentors, physical therapists and educators - proves the potential impact of kindness and community support. It is in his honor that we unite for this charitable racquet mixer, creating ripples of positive change that will flourish into far-reaching waves of compassion and generosity.

By participating in the 2026 Serve For A Good Turn Mixer,  you are making more than just a contribution — you are playing an active role in fostering a culture of kindness and empowerment. Together, we can inspire others to collaborate, make a difference, and pay it forward, ultimately transforming lives one good turn at a time.

Join us on the courts this year to not only enjoy an evening of friendly competition and fun, but also to amplify the spirit of giving and community action. With your support, the For A Good Turn Foundation’s mission will continue to thrive, touching countless lives in meaningful and profound ways.

Serve with purpose, For A Good Turn!   With heartfelt thanks from Pete, Cindy & Cierra Hodo Rodriguez.
