We are incredibly grateful to CEOs Against Cancer - Pacific Northwest Chapter member, Chris Steffanci, Columbia Distributing and their partners for giving passionately to the Pacific Northwest Community. The success of the 13th Annual Scott DeMartine Memorial Charity Golf Tournament is truly inspiring, and we are honored to be one of the beneficiaries of this year's incredible fundraising efforts. Thank you, Columbia Distributing, for your year-round commitment to helping us increase access to care in rural communities, together we are helping to end cancer as we know it, for everyone.
We’re humbled and overjoyed to announce the 13th Annual Scott DeMartine Memorial Charity Golf Tournament raised over $350,000. Thank you so much to all who have participated in this amazing tradition. This year's funds will be donated to four charities: Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Western Washington & Alaska, the Washington State division of the American Cancer Society, StolenYouth, and Parrott Creek Child & Family Services. Over its lifetime, the tournament, combined with an internal company auction, has raised more than $1 million dollars, with over half of all proceeds donated to RMHC. “Your contributions have had a profound impact on our ability to provide housing and essential services during a family’s greatest time of need. As we celebrate 40 years serving families at the Seattle House, we are grateful for partners like Columbia Distributing, who play a vital role in helping us remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children require medical care away from home.” - Vanessa Kirk-Briley, RMHC Director of Corporate and Community Engagement

In Washington, the American Cancer Society recently awarded $223,000 in transportation and lodging grant funding to alleviate the financial burden of transportation and lodging costs for cancer patients.
