First, let me thank everyone who participated in this fund raiser! It was in my opinion a MAJOR SUCCESS! It could have not been accomplished without everyone who sponsored, participated, volunteered, and donated. Please visit the St. Jude.org website at DIY Just Because: Swing for a Cure and Toss for a Cure - St. Jude (stjude.org) for the update. You can also visit the page at SWING FOR A CURE 2023 GOLF TOURNAMENT Queenstown MD | Facebook to view the event photos.
As a recap, the Swing for A Cure website at St. Jude page was created in 2022. In 2022, we raised $4000 which is included in the total funds raised on that page. The two years prior 2021 and 2020, we raised about $6000, but that was not captured on the fundraising page. So together over those 3 years, we raised a little more than $10,000!
This year, 2023, the Golf Tournament and Corn Horn Tournament combined raised $13,617.50!
Below is a summary of this year's fundraising:
Total $ Collected from Golf Tournament & Corn Hole $25,859.00
Total Expenses for Golf, Prizes, Catering, Administrative $14,431.50
Direct Website Donations in 2023 $ 2,190.00
Website Donation to be Made on Behalf of Remaining Donors $11,427.50 (I rounded up donation to 11,500.00 and that donation was made on 8/27/23)
In just 4 years, together, we have raised over $23,700 for St. Jude. Just remember, it’s never too late for someone to go to the website and donate directly if they missed an opportunity. Also, if anyone needs an individual donor receipt for tax purposes, please email me and I’ll be happy to provide it.
Again, I want to thank each and every donor including our corporate sponsors and local businesses and individual donors! No matter how large or small your contribution was, be proud that you helped the children and families at St. Jude.
God Bless each and every one who helped make this possible! And God Bless the families at St. Jude!
