A Note from Arnold Palmer

Fellow Golfers, Golf Pros, Survivors and Supporters,

In the time it takes to play a round of golf, 14 men will lose their lives to prostate cancer.

As the Honorary Chairman of Arnie’s Army Battles Prostate Cancer and a prostate cancer survivor, I am asking for your help - your influence - and your passion.

Our program is about raising funds to find a cure. Funds raised go directly to the Prostate Cancer Foundation, the world’s largest philanthropic source of support for prostate cancer research. Since its inception, PCF has raised over $260 million dollars and funded over 1,200 research projects.

The easiest way to help is to schedule a one-day, one-hole, closest-to-the-pin contest at your club. My colleagues will supply the support materials and send a golf prize for the winner.

You can also incorporate the one-hole contest into a pre-scheduled charity, group or corporate outing.

On a grander scale, committed individuals are organizing local fundraising “golf days” complete with hole sponsorships, silent auctions, advertising and a host of other exciting and creative ways to fundraise. A small group of committed individuals at an Arizona retirement community recently raised over $40,000! My hat is off to them!

Please join our campaign and take action in the following ways:

Call my colleagues at Arnie’s Army today to discuss how you can help.

  • Call your golf pro or golf committee chairman and tell them you want to hold a contest. Then advise us how to follow-up.
  • Or simply refer us to the contact at your club. We’ll take it from there.

Thank you, in advance, for your assistance and helping us in any way to find a cure for this insidious disease.

Yours truly,

AP

Arnold Palmer
