Since the first tournament, we have donated $20 from each participant's fee to the local chapter of Susan G. Komen for the Cure—totaling over $20,000 raised for breast cancer research.

In 2022, we decided to expand our community impact by donating a portion of each participant's fee to The Upstate Foundation. The Upstate Foundation was established in 1976 as a 501(c) (3) not-for-profit corporation. The corporation is a public charity designed to receive and administer gifts and bequests exclusively for charitable purposes with a focus on (1) the provision of patient health care, (2) the education of health care providers, (3) scientific research, and (4) community health and well-being. The Upstate Foundation is also the primary vehicle for receiving and distributing philanthropic gifts for Upstate Medical University. We've raised over $5,000 for the Foundation and are excited to partner with them again in 2025.
