CHBCF 2021 Fundraiser
Our annual Fundraiser, Tee it up for a cure, returned to Croasdaile Country Club in Durham on Monday, September 27th. Participants enjoyed a beautiful day of golf followed by a reception and live/silent auctions. Katrina Matthew, a single mother of two young sons and an 8-year survivor of stage 4 metastatic breast cancer spoke to all participants before they set off for their afternoon of golf. Katrina shared her remarkable and inspiring story. She is alive today, despite all the odds against her, because of research into novel therapies and hope. In the world of cancer research, Katrina is what hope looks like. On the same day, Mid South Club in Southern Pines held the “Mid South Goes Pink” fundraiser. With a full field of women golfers and a beautiful day, the money raised far exceeded what might be expected for their first event in support of the Chapel Hill Breast Cancer Foundation. A third fundraiser was organized by one of our Event Sponsors, PHE. They held a silent auction in October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, at their facility in Hillsborough, NC. Due to the generosity of sponsors, donors, volunteers and participants, 100% of the money raised supports the Chapel Hill Breast Cancer Foundation and its mission to fund breast cancer research at our local universities. Tee it up for a cure raised over $55,000 Mid South Goes Pink raised over $25,000 PHE (Event Sponsor) raised over $7,000 In 2021, the CHBCF raised a record $87,900 that was distributed directly and equally to the breast cancer research centers at Duke, University of North Carolin and Wake Forest. An enormous “THANK YOU” goes out to all who made these events so successful. We are very fortunate to live in an area that is home to three of the top cancer research centers. Because of your generous support our local researchers will be able to bring their studies from the lab to the clinic. Your past donations are making a difference today.
