This summer, be a hero for all those living with or impacted by MG!
Create a community fundraiser to raise awareness about MG and raise funds to support education and research into this rare disease. Now is the perfect time to start planning a summer fundraiser that makes a real difference for the myasthenia gravis community.
Consider a golf tournament – while it may seem intimidating to organize, a successful tournament doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are a few tips to help you get started.
⛳ Start Early
Golf courses book up fast in the late spring and summer months. Reaching out now gives you more flexibility on dates, tee times, and pricing.
⛳ Keep It Simple
Many fundraisers start with a basic scramble format, a registration fee, and a casual awards ceremony. Add a silent auction, hole sponsorships, or more opportunities for businesses to give back if you want to go beyond the basics.
⛳ Invite Sponsors
Local businesses often love sponsoring holes, prizes, or refreshments. It’s a great way to raise funds while building community awareness of myasthenia gravis.
⛳ Make It Meaningful
Share why MGFA matters to you. Whether it’s a personal connection to MG or a passion for supporting rare disease research, your story inspires others to give.
