GOLF FOR A CAUSE
"...to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!”
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
In May of 2020 we launched a charity golf auction in support of New York City Local Restaurants and Hospital Workers effected by COVID-19. What started out as a way to give back, resulted in over $100,000 raised in 7 days, equating to over 10,000 meals for frontline workers.
We've since raised over $650,000 for a variety of amazing non-profits through once in a lifetime rounds of golf.
