The 22nd Annual Dan McLaughlin Charity Golf Tournament and Auction is just four months away. Sponsors and golfers are once again rallying for the Special Education Foundation’s most significant fundraiser. In the past 21 years, this event has raised over $5 million, a testament to its impact on the lives of students with disabilities in our community.

This year’s Tournament will take place on Monday, October 14, 2024, at Norwood Hills Country Club.

We want to thank these loyal companies for already signing up for the event.

Here are a few compelling reasons why a business should consider sponsoring this impactful annual event:

Your sponsorship is a direct contribution to some of our region’s most vulnerable children, aligning your business with our shared values and making a significant difference in their lives.

Excellent Benefits. Our sponsorship packages cater to different business needs and budgets.

Exclusive Networking Opportunities. Sponsoring our tournament is more than just supporting a great cause. It’s about gaining access to a unique network of like-minded individuals and businesses. Many of our sponsors have formed valuable connections with our partners in the Special School District and the disability community, forging vital connections and contacts through the event. It's a chance to be part of something bigger.

A Day of Fun and More. Our tournament is not just about making a difference; it's about having a blast. Each year, hundreds of golfers join us for a day of enjoyable golf, delicious food, and refreshing beverages. And that's not all. We also host a Happy Hour Buffet, where you can bid on items in our Silent and Live Auctions, which include some amazing sports memorabilia, travel, and local entertainment packages. It's a day filled with excitement and fun that you won't want to miss.
