PCDC Annual Golf for Educational

Excellence Tournament

 
 

Pillar’s ‘Golf for Educational Excellence’

One of the premier programs of the Pillar Community Development Corporation, Inc., helps fund education aid awards and scholarships for college students from the Greater Hartford area. Over the past 23 years, this tournament has raised over $703,000 and funded 727 education aid awards to deserving students.

The event will consist of 18 holes of golf and a: putting contest, longest drive contest (men & women), closest to the pin contest (men & women) as well as an online auction, raffle prizes, a 50/50 contest, a delicious lunch, and a heart moving program. There’s something for everyone!

Please considering investing in Pillar, so we can invest in our children. Invite a friend, or two, and come learn more about Pillar while playing a round of golf on one of the nation's top municipal golf courses and a Pete Dye Masterpiece.

A Word of thanks from the president

On behalf of the Pillar Community Development Corporation (PCDC) Board of Directors, I would like to personally thank all our sponsors, donors, participants, and volunteers for your contribution in making the 23rd Annual Golf for Educational Excellence Tournament a huge success.  

With your help, we were able to raise over $50,000. Over the past twenty-three years, the tournament has raised more than $700,000 and within this time, Pillar has provided 692 educational aid awards to deserving students. With the money raised during the tournament along with contributions from other donors, we will once again award educational aid and book scholarships in August to college students throughout the
Greater Hartford area.  

With your ongoing support, we hope to continue providing financial assistance to help fulfill the educational dreams of future global leaders for years to come.
