Pictures are up, we hope you enjoy all the pics from our 8th Annual Driving for a Cure Golf Tournament! Special thank you to our friends at Love Wedding & Events for donating a super amazing photo booth for all to enjoy! They will ALSO be making an appearance at our 2023 Family Day (see below) and we are so grateful to have their support!

Last but certainly NOT least – at our Driving for a Cure end of tournament banquet this year, we announced an exciting way for our golfers and Driving for a Cure event to directly support our upcoming Family Day for our local families with a child who has fought or is fighting cancer.

We have a limited number of supporter spots left and would love if you would consider making a 100% tax-deductible donation to help us make sure this is an incredible event!

Your $100 donation is so greatly appreciated! In doing so you will receive a small sign on the putt-putt golf course that families will read throughout the day as they play. We will reach out to you once all spots are filled to get the information you’d like for us to include on the signage.

Thank you as always for your support!

Together we raised a whopping $36,486.83 towards our mission!!! 

We’d like to once again thank our Tournament Sponsor Thrivent Financial Dulles Group for their support and incredible generosity in sponsoring our event.  From handing out extra waters/snacks on the turn to raffling off their own Yeti cooler to raise additional funds – each year they have been a proud supporter and we are grateful for Marty, Dave, Kim & group!

Thank you to our friend Niko’s dad Juan for joining us and sharing their families story with all of us.  We know Juan touched many hearts and what he did isn’t always easy to do.  Please keep the entire Chavarriaga family in your thoughts and prayers as we know too well that a cancer diagnosis is life-changing, we pray for Niko’s continued good health and healing from all he & his family have been through over the last few years.

Thank you to all of our in-kind donors who helped contribute toward auction and raffle items, our awesome team of volunteers, all our participants, and of course to the staff and team at Piedmont Golf Club. Each of you contribute to the success of this event year after year, and we are so grateful.
