The Charity Golf Classic, hosted on Friday, April 26 at McCormick Ranch Golf Club, raises funds every April for local charities supporting health & human services, youth programs, animal welfare and public safety.

Additional charities benefitting from the Golf Classic include Make-A-Wish Arizona, American Heart Association, PANDA, Phoenix Dream Center, United Food Bank and #LovePup.
“The generous support of Lerner & Rowe Gives Back will fuel our mission of providing hope, healing and the best possible care to every child who walks through our doors,” said Tim Harrison, vice president of corporate partnerships at Phoenix Children’s Foundation. “The money raised through this tournament will be instrumental in innovating and expanding our programs at Phoenix Children’s.”
