Mission Statement
Par Fore the Cure is a 100%-volunteer-run organization that raises funds to support brain tumor research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Research through the Jimmy Fund.
Description
Par Fore the Cure is a 100%-volunteer-run organization that produces two annual events - the Par Fore the Cure Golf Classic each June, and the Golf Ball (gala event). We honor the lives of all those affected by brain tumors and offer hope to patients, families, and practitioners by raising awareness and funding brain tumor research through contributions to The Jimmy Fund. Through volunteer support, in-kind food donations and corporate sponsorships, we endeavor to run our events as efficiently as possible, thereby ensuring that our bottom-line donations increase while our guest costs remain affordable to all. To date we have donated more than $400,000 to brain tumor research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Research in Boston.
