Charitable Beneficiary
*****CHARITABLE BENEFICIARY*****
For the past ten years, the tournament has raised money for the Hospice of Charleston Foundation, a non-profit organization that makes compassionate end of life care possible by assisting families who turn to Hospice for help. Last year, $37,000 was presented to the HOC at the buffet dinner, bringing the total gift over past years to over $184,000. Please consider supporting the Hospice of Charleston Foundation by noting your donation on the Tournament Entry Form. In addition, Thursday's Players' Cocktail Party will feature a robust silent and live auction with all funds raised during this evening's event directly benefiting the Hospice of Charleston Foundation. We encourage you to consider joining us in these fund-raising efforts. It's a win-win situation!
