Hermitage, PA – May 21, 2014 – The Killian Foundation announced today the successful completion of its inaugural charity golf tournament at Tam O’Shanter Golf Course on May 17th.
The event was supported by 68 players, 97 corporate and individual sponsors, and 31 volunteers including 2 groups from Kohl’s Cares. The event raised nearly $14,000 to benefit pediatric cancer patients and their families at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC (CHP).
“The cold and windy weather couldn’t dampen the enthusiasm or the support we received from the community,” said Chris Killian, Director of The Killian Foundation. “We are extremely grateful for the tremendous participation we received from sponsors, players and volunteers.”
