Dory Faxon

Dory was able to fulfill a long time dream by moving her family to the gardens area after vacationing there for over 20 years. A graduate of Boston College, Dory also graduated from Roger Williams School of Law in Rhode Island in 1999. She formerly had a career in Human Resources before she met her husband, a professional golfer, and traveled with him and their daughter on the PGA Tour for many years.

Dory has been involved with numerous nonprofit organizations and currently sits on the board of The Andrade Faxon Charities for Children, Meeting Street School, and serves on the advisory council at Hasbro Children’s Hospital in Rhode Island. She was the President of the PGA Tour Wives Association for five years. In 2010 she and her husband created the Faxon Blessings Program where, through the national organization Blessings in a Backpack, they have been feeding 500 children in five different elementary schools every weekend of the school year.

Dory enjoys spending time with her family in what she calls “paradise” here in South Florida. She plays golf, tennis and loves to try all new forms of exercise. She also continues to pursue opportunities in what she is truly passionate about which is charitable work.
