Georgia Urology and Boston Scientific to sponsor Volunteer Headquarters
Support for 1,300 volunteers will allow the TOUR Championship to give back to the East Lake community
ATLANTA – The TOUR Championship today announced a partnership with Georgia Urology and Boston Scientific as sponsors of the tournament’s Volunteer Headquarters, which serves as the dedicated area where the more than 1,300 volunteers who make the tournament possible can check in and rest, relax, and refresh.
The TOUR Championship serves as the culminating event of the FedExCup Playoffs and PGA TOUR season, where only the top 30 players in the FedExCup standings will advance to East Lake Golf Club over Labor Day weekend, September 2-5, for a chance to win the PGA TOUR’s Ultimate Prize: the FedExCup.
TOUR Championship volunteers help organize, coordinate, and manage the event in various capacities which allows the event to donate back to the community. Since first being played at East Lake in 1998 the TOUR Championship has given back over $38 million to charity, primarily benefitting the East Lake Foundation, the First Tee of Metro Atlanta, Grove Park Foundation and Purpose Built Schools Atlanta.
“We are proud to support the volunteers at the TOUR Championship,” said Dan Fellner, CEO of Georgia Urology. “These are the men and women whose involvement helps Atlanta host the TOUR Championship and allows the tournament to do so much for our community. It aligns perfectly with our values and actions at Georgia Urology.”
“Volunteers are the heart and soul of our tournament. Simply put, the TOUR Championship would not be possible without the commitment from our volunteers,” said Allison Fillmore, Executive Director of the TOUR Championship. “By stepping up for them, Georgia Urology and Boston Scientific are stepping up for our community.”
