Mark Your Calendars for the 32nd Annual Hit ’Em for Hemophilia Golf Tournament
By Kirstin Downie, Director of Development
Hemophilia of Georgia will celebrate the Atlanta Braves Hall of Fame Year at the Hit ’Em for Hemophilia Golf Tournament on Tuesday, October 28, 2014. This year’s tournament committee is hard at work adding exciting new features to the event that will take place at the Manor Golf and Country Club and Echelon Golf Club in Alpharetta, Georgia. A new online bidding system will allow attendees, and those unable to participate on tournament day, access to unique and exclusive Atlanta Braves memorabilia and specialty sports, music, art, jewelry, and travel auction items. Watch for emails about the launch date for the online auction in October and check out featured items on our Facebook page in the coming weeks.
Sponsored in partnership with the Atlanta Braves, the 32nd Annual Hit ’Em for Hemophilia Golf Tournament will bring together more than 250 golfers including corporate executives, sports celebrities, sponsors and community members. Proceeds from the event are directed towards research efforts to find a cure for hemophilia that is safe, effective, and widely available.
Only with your support can we make the 2014 Hit ’Em for Hemophilia Golf Tournament the most successful ever. Here’s what you can do to help:
