Golf Tournament Benefitting Orphans in Kenya

Golf Tournament Benefitting Orphans in Kenya

Project 82 Kenya is hosting their inaugural Golf Tournament benefiting their infant rescue ministry in Kenya. The golf tournament will take place on Monday, April 13, 2015 at Pinetree Country Club located in Kennesaw, GA. The Platinum sponsor for the tournament is Merrill Lynch.

Breakfast at the course and registration will begin at 7:30am, followed by a shotgun start at 9am. Participants will be entered in various competitions held in conjunction with the tournament, including hole-in-one, longest drive and closest to the pin contests. Boxed lunches will be served on carts. Following the tournament, there will be an awards ceremony and reception. A silent and live auction for event tickets, weekend packages and entertainment experiences will also be held, along with raffle prize drawings.

“I am so pleased that we are approaching our first annual golf tournament,” said Project 82 Kenya’s executive director Anita Colley. “Organizations who are sponsoring our event and golfers who participate will directly impact the orphans and widows we serve in Kenya. Proceeds from the tournament will go directly to our programs in Kenya. A big thank you to all the sponsors involved in this year’s event and for making it possible.”
