our golf classic was held on september 21st at the course, forest park, and in this 16th year, raised over $43,000.

THIS MONEY IS USED TO FUND THE FOUNDATION PROGRAMS, WHICH INCLUDE THE HISPANIC LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE AND THE HIGH SCHOOL HISPANIC LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE.

These institutes educate and empower not only current Hispanic business leaders in the St. Louis area, but also young future leaders. As one of the only programs in this area, we strive to invest in these students so that they can go on to become innovative business leaders and strengthen Hispanic participation in the St. Louis business sector and beyond.

We are so glad to have been able to hold the tournament again this year, with a record of 200 registered players and 17 sponsors on that beautiful day. The staff incorporated new technology, which made the registration and tickets sales more streamlined, and the catered lunch, from Havana’s Cuisine, LA Taco Cantina, and Guido’s Pizzeria and Tapas, was a success with people going back for seconds.

We are so grateful that the participation and support for the Golf Classic continue to grow each year. Again, thank you so much for your donation and participation to the HCC STL Foundation Golf Classic this year. Without your support, it could not have been a success.

TESTIMONY

The Hispanic Chamber Golf Classic is my favorite golf outing of the year, this year certainly did not disappoint. While my golf game has plenty of room for improvement, the camaraderie, great weather, plentiful food, and beverages plus all the raffle prizes always make this a fun event.

I am always encouraged to see the support we have from the Hispanic Chamber’s members as well as local businesses. This year’s sold-out event raised over $43,000 to fund the Hispanic Foundation programs that will equip many young Latinos for years to come.

We are grateful to the volunteers, the Norman Probstein Golf course staff, our generous sponsors, and every player who made this event a success, I have no doubt next year will be even better. I look forward to seeing you next year!
