Golf and Tennis Classic Raises Over $130,000 for Chicago Kids

On behalf of the 6,000 kids fed every Friday of the school year across the Chicago area, thank you for participating in the 2024 Blessings Golf and Tennis Classic. Without your kind and generous support, we would not have had the tremendous success we did.

The event was motivated by inspiring talks by Chris Singleton and Kristian Murray, program coordinator of the Sanborn School in Palatine. The 2024 Classic had the exceptional experience of a hole-in-one by Joe Gill, with a $10,000 prize!

We raised more than $130,000, allowing us to feed more than 800  children every Friday of the school year across the Chicago Chapter.

You can be proud to know that you have positively impacted the lives of thousands of young people.

Thank you to our sponsors Molex, Heico, Aldridge Electric, and Northern Trust for their outstanding contributions.

Special thanks to our Classic Committee: Mike Noel, Scott Whicker, Derran Smith, Kristine Prugh, Chris Sporer, Kathy Raby, Murat Dogansoysal, Colleen Bohn, Rachel Watson, and Maribeth Cleary.

Congratulations to Joe Gill for achieving a hole-in-one on Hole 14 at Exmoor Country Club, earning a $10,000 prize! To the right, you can find a video taken by John Hering, with Eric Bauer confirming the hole-in-one.
