Event: 2018 Longest Day of Golf, September 24, 2018

Sep
24

 

Long Day of Golf

Think about the worst pain you’ve ever had:  a terrible toothache, a broken bone, shingles or surgery. Now imagine that pain never goes away. Ever! Who do you turn to for Help? RSDSA! Who do we turn to? You, our generous donors!
 
RSDSA supports children, adults, and families who suffer from chronic pain. Our single biggest fundraising event of the year “The Longest Day of Golf (LDOG)” is scheduled for September 24th. The best part is that you don’t even need to be a golfer to participate. All you have to do is sponsor Josh Rosen, who is again lending his prodigious talent to RSDSA. He will play as many holes as possible from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. and hopes to surpass last year’s mark (111 holes played in a day) by completing 126 holes or 7 complete rounds of golf.  The least we can do to support his efforts is to surpass our monetary goal and shoot for the $50,000 mark.  All we need is for:
  • 794 people to pledge $.50 a hole
  • 393 people to pledge $1.00 a hole
  • 79  people to pledge $5.00 a hole
Here is how, with your help (and Josh’s) we make a real difference in the lives of those with CRPS:
  • The week long Camp For Courageous Kids continues to grow (120 families and over 202 children). One parent wrote, “I heard one child get up and say it literally saved her life; she had already tried suicide.” In addition, we added a Young Adults’ Weekend, for those 18 – 30 making the difficult transition to adulthood.
  • Jenkins Assistance Fund grants for those in need of emergency financial assistance topped $100,000. These grants provide help with rent, utility bills, medical equipment transportation to doctor’s visits or hospital, treatment costs and event food cards.
  • RSDSA sponsored scientific conferences and research leading to the standardization of clinical trials and reporting, an important step to finding treatment and a cure for CRPS.
