Golfers are helping to save lives
To the editor:
Jimmy Fund Golf extends a sincere thank you to the organizers and sponsors of the Linda Rotondi Memorial Golf Tournament held on Aug. 27, 2010, at Renaissance Country Club in Haverhill.
Special recognition and appreciation goes to Charles Rotondi of Newburyport, who organized the event.
The dedicated sponsors, participants, and volunteers helped raise critical funds in memory of Linda Rotondi to support lifesaving cancer research and care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
This year, 2010, marks the 28th year of Jimmy Fund Golf, one of the country's largest golf programs for charity. From traditional golf tournaments and country club member events to mini-golf tournaments and all day golf marathons, volunteers create golf fundraisers that combine their love of the sport with their desire to support the fight against cancer. Each event is an incredibly rewarding and fun way to support a great cause!
The Linda Rotondi Memorial Golf Tournament was one of the many golf tournaments that will be held in 2010 to raise money for the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber. American Airlines, Callaway Golf, Dunkin' Donuts, Forty Seven Brand, the International Golf Club, and GateHouse Media New England are the presenting sponsors of Jimmy Fund Golf.
Nearly $74 million has been raised by these dedicated volunteers and sponsors since 1983.
