WGGB’s 2021 Charity Tournament Raises $130,000
1st Place Net: Megan McLaughlin, Gary Brown, David Walbrandt and Lisa Perry, with LPGA pro Vall Skinner (middle)
Women Golfers Give Back is thrilled to report that between our June 2021 tournament, online auction, raffle and generous donations, we raised a record $130,000 to support girls golf programs. Thank you to all our sponsors and supporters for making this another successful year for WGGB and our grantees!
The day started with a clinic for our younger grantees with LPGA and PGA pros, and a 9-hole competition for our older grantees. See photos of the girls in action and 9-hole tournament winners on the WGGB Facebook page.
After lunch and a brief rain delay, 21 foursomes of WGGB sponsors and supporters completed a one best-ball tournament followed by cocktails and dinner. Our LPGA friend Val Skinner graced us with her presence and beautiful swing on the par-3 hole #9. Thank you to Whitemarsh Valley Country Club for hosting us again this year, ensuring a safe and fun environment for all.
Stay tuned for details on our 2022 tournament!
