“My family and I are excited to kick-off summer with the annual Tournament of Legends and invite you to join us for the fun pre-party event and golf tournament,” said Doug Flutie, co-founder of the Flutie Foundation. “Each year, our friends, families and supporters come together to help individuals living with autism and their families, and we hope you’ll join us for another great year.” In the past thirteen years, the Tournament of Legends has raised over $2 million to help the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism provide support to thousands of families where other autism organizations have fallen short: providing direct assistance to individuals with autism and their families with services they need.
