The numbers are finally in and we are happy to report that our 38th annual Hit 'Em for Hemophilia Golf Tournament raised $103,490 for inherited bleeding disorder research!

On October 20, we hosted more than 120 golfers, celebrity guests, and corporate sponsors at the Golf Club of Georgia in Alpharetta, all in support of bleeding disorder research for a cure. It was a gorgeous day with near-perfect weather, and attendees enjoyed a fun day of golf, food, drinks, and silent auction bidding. After many months apart, it was nice to see so many friendly (masked) faces in person again! We were joined by special guests, Parker & Oliver D., who spoke to the golfers about their wish to see a cure developed in their lifetime.

We'd like to express our deepest thanks to all the players, sponsors, donors, volunteers, and auction bidders who helped make it all possible. Like Dr. Sidonio said in his speech before the tournament, it is more important than ever to continue funding the vital research for a cure happening in the inherited bleeding disorders community. Thanks to the generous support from everyone involved in this year’s tournament, we can continue to do just that!

Special thanks to our bronze sponsors: Bio Marin, North Atlanta Primary Care, Novo Nordisk, and ZWJ Investment Counsel, as well as our long-time tournament partner, the Atlanta Braves.
