Goal For 2023
Our fundraising goal this year is $60,000 - an amount we are confident our generous sponsors, Porters Neck neighbors and Wilmington tennis community will help us achieve This year's event will also feature a VIP sponsor party on Thursday, September 28 Based on 2022 attendance, and early registrations for 2023, we expect the event to sell out quickly! See you in September!
Last October, the Wilmington tennis community led by players from Porters Neck Country Club, turned out in force to support our efforts to raise over $60,000 to benefit Make A Wish Eastern NC for children with life changing medical diagnoses Over the course of three days, attendees at the 2nd Annual Swing For The Stars Tennis Tournament enjoyed premier-level amenities for players and spectators alike, including a DJ, club activities like bocce and pickleball, plus food and beverages options from our award winning F&B staff
Porters Neck Country Club and Swing For The Stars are set to do it again this year, with our 3rd Annual Swing For The Stars Tennis Tournament scheduled to take place September 29 - October 1, 2023 While our mission to help children with critical illness remains the same, we would like to take an opportunity to share the success of this event with other local non-profits who serve similar missions We are thrilled to announce that this year's tournament will benefit the Wilmington chapter of Welcome Home Angel
Why Welcome Home Angel? Founded in Wilmington in 2007, Welcome Home Angel's hyper-local mission serves families and children in Southeastern NC, providing joy and relief through customized space transformations for children with special healthcare needs From aesthetic sensory rooms to wheelchairaccessible bathrooms, WHA's impact allows caregivers to provide safer care in their own home, where children can focus on being a kid instead of their diagnosis With design teams comprised of volunteers, therapists, interior designers, and contractors, each room is customized to the child's needs
100% OF THE PROCEEDS FROM THE TOURNAMENT WILL SERVE LOCAL CHILDREN IN THE WILMINGTON AREA
