CHARITY – Giving Back….. The Heart of the PGA Tour
Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors in Athens and the Northeast Georgia Community, we will be able to donate proceeds of the tournament to the Athens Regional Foundation. These proceeds will allow the Foundation to continue funding projects such as the Loran Smith Center for Cancer Support, the Breast Health Center for Breast Health Education, Screening & Cancer Diagnosis, the ARMC Guest House and the new Griffin‐Dubose Healing Lodge. By serving the needs of the community, our tournament support a variety of organizations.
Additionally, the tournament supports a variety of additional charities such as the American Cancer Society, American Heart Association and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society through our “Tickets Fore Charity” program. We also provide support to the First Tee Program, which provides young people of all backgrounds the opportunity to develop through golf and character education, life enhancing values such as honesty, integrity and sportsmanship.
