Dear Friends,
I am thrilled to be leading the efforts for the Anacostia Economic Development Corporation's Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament, scheduled for Tuesday, October 1, 2024. This event is more than just a golf tournament—it's a vital opportunity to support the future of deserving students, and I’m reaching out to request your support.
The AEDC Scholarship Foundation Board is proud to present the 25th Annual Albert R. “Butch” Hopkins Memorial Scholarship Foundation Golf Tournament. Under the leadership of Stanley Jackson, President/CEO, AEDC is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering economic development in Anacostia and the Far Southeast of Washington, D.C.
Established in memory of Albert R. “Butch” Hopkins, our Scholarship Foundation provides essential funding for high school graduates from Anacostia and Ballou High Schools. These two local institutions are committed to nurturing the next generation of leaders and preparing them for success in college, their careers, and beyond.
For a quarter-century, our Scholarship Foundation has relied on the generosity of supporters like you to make a significant impact. To date, we have awarded over $360,000 in scholarships to 76 students who are now pursuing higher education across the nation.
Your support of the 25th Annual Golf Tournament will directly transform the lives of these students and their families. We offer a range of sponsorship and support levels, detailed in the attached document. To register and learn more, please visit aedcgolfdc.com.
This year, we aim to raise $150,000, and your contribution is crucial to achieving this goal. Can we count on you to help make this milestone event a success?
Thank you for your continued support and commitment to our community.
