Dear Friends of the Purple Playas,
We would love your participation in our 2023 Purple Playas Par-Tee and Charity Golf. Even non-golfers are welcome to join the party. This exciting event is Friday evening, June 2 and Saturday afternoon, June 3, 2023 at TPC Tampa Bay. For over 20 years, TPC Tampa Bay has been a proud host of the PGA TOUR Champions event and is a beautiful indoor/outdoor party venue.Please consider sponsoring, donating, golfing, and/or attending our Purple Playas Par-Tee. None of this is possible without the generous support of our community’s outpour of love and investment in these children.
We are volunteer-driven, and 100% of our proceeds support children impacted by rare diseases and chronic complex illnesses (i.e., common variable immune deficiencies, juvenile arthritis, Crohn’s and colitis, interstitial lung disease, diabetes, sickle cell, and children with comorbidities). We do this for the kids!
Our 3 Goals are:
1. Social-emotional resources on coping with medical trauma.
2. Funding and resources, resulting in SMILES (i.e., gas/food gift cards, camp, family connect days, holiday gifts, and educational grants).
3. Funding pediatric fellowships due to shortages in specialty areas. Funded rheumatology fellowship (2019-2022). Funding child-life specialist fellowship (2023-2026)
Please visit https://purpleplayasfoundation.org/ and click on “News and Events” for more information. All sponsorships, donations, auction donations, and ticket purchases can be done on-line. We are also happy to meet with you personally and assist in any way needed. Families are deeply grateful for all your support!
Much Appreciation,
Rochelle Lentini, CEO/Board President
