With year-round competition, tennis features some of the busiest athletes in the world. Even so, they still make time to support a variety of charitable causes. From exhibitions and pro-ams to concerts and celebrity parties, these generous players devote plenty of their time and energy to raise money and awareness for charities close to their hearts.

These events bring in millions of dollars annually to support a wide variety of causes, among them displaced families, adult literacy, children's education and inner-city youth programs, and many others, improving the lives of thousands in need.
