sjvcon Report post Posted July 30, 2014 For our fourth consecutive year, the Men’s Ministry at my Church is putting on a Charity Golf Event for “Feed My Starving Children” … an organization that feeds starving children in countries all around the world (see www.fmsc.org for more information). The tournament is on September 27th at Cottonwood Country Club in Sun Lakes. Last year, as with the two years prior, we were able to donate more than $10K to the FMSC Organization from Tournament Sponsors, Hole Sponsors, and Auction and other proceeds. This was with far less than the 36 foursomes that would represent a “Full Field” (I think we had 19 or 20). Our goal this year is to fill this thing up and donate much more. The tournament cost is $99 per player, which includes lunch. We can sign up singles and put them into groups, or full foursomes for $396. There are also Hole Sponsorships available for $250, which gets a sign on the tee box with all of your pertinent information. A Tournament Sponsorship runs $1000 and includes a foursome of golf and a hole sponsorship sign as well. We are also asking for any donations to the Silent Auction that can be made. In the past, we've been able to auction golf clubs (wedges, woods and full sets), sports memorabilia (autographed footballs, baseballs, photos), tickets to ballgames (Suns/Cardinals/D'Backs/Coyotes) and many other great items. Unfortunately, due to back issues and an impending surgery, I cannot actually play this year, but I will be helping out as much as possible with the event (either at the event or behind the scenes -- hopefully at the event God willing). That is more painful than you know, since my team has won it two of the three years ... and I'm a crummy golfer!!! Anyway, it is a very worthy cause. If you can participate in any way, please send me a PM with your email and I will send you the full brochure with all of the specifics. There are lots of kids out there that need food, and this organization does a great job of getting food where it needs to go. Thanks. And thanks to Amanda and this great Website for letting me get the word out. Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
