Fore Her to Host Ninth Annual Golf Outing Fundraiser

Fore Her, a 501(c)3 organization that financially supports patients battling breast cancer and their families, will host their Ninth Annual Golf Outing on Friday, Oct. 29, at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort.

Registration is now open and the cost to play is $175 per golfer or $650 for a team of four, which covers 18 holes of golf on Sandestin’s Baytowne Club, plus all green and cart fees. Golfers will enjoy breakfast and a bloody mary bar before tee-off, followed by various food and beverage items provided at each hole. Mulligans are available to purchase for $10 for 2 or $40 for 8. There are eight mulligan limits per team. Tee off is at 10 a.m. 

Fore Her is a 501(c)3 organization that was started in memory of Founder Amy Walsh’s mother and aunt, who both lost their battles with breast cancer. Over the past eight years, Fore Her has raised over $130,000 through their annual Golf Outing. The money raised from the annual event will directly benefit local individuals currently battling breast cancer who are in need of financial assistance. Those in need or to nominate someone in need of financial assistance from Fore Her, please visit https://www.foreher.org/get-help to submit a request.

“I am humbled to be able to assist local breast cancer patients financially in their time of need in honor of my Mom and Aunt,” said Amy Walsh, founder of Fore Her. “Had it not been for family and friends helping my parents by holding fundraisers to offset medical bills, my parents would have endured a harsh financial struggle.” 

The outing will end with a 19th Hole Celebration party where golfers and their loved ones will gather for heavy hors d'oeuvres, drinks, live music, and a silent auction. Awards will also be given for first place, best dressed, and last place. The celebration will take place on the course near the Baytowne Golf Pro-Shop beginning at 3 p.m.

Fore Her will also host a Putt Fore Jewelry event for those who are waiting for their golfers to complete their round. The cost is $50 to participate and includes hors d'oeuvres, cocktails, and access to the extensive silent auction. Participants will try their luck at putting their ball into various holes on the putting green for the chance to win a $500 gift card to McCaskill and Company. 

Various levels of sponsorship are available for local businesses to purchase, including Hole Sponsorships, 19th Hole Sponsor, Drink Cart Sponsor, Practice Driving Range Sponsor, Practice Putting Green Sponsor, and the Presenting Sponsor. Fore Her would like to thank the local businesses who have already secured their sponsorships, including Barker Williams, PLLC, Busy Bees Cleaning Solutions, Emerald Bay Plumbing, Fresh Prints of South Walton, MetroPower, Pizza by the Sea, and Shoreline Title.
