This year we are excited to celebrate the 18th anniversary for the MMA SE Charity Classic benefiting the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation Butterfly Fund. MMA SE has been hosting the Charity Classic to benefit the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation and has raised over $3.5 million towards the Butterfly Fund. We have had tremendous success with both the virtual fundraising event and last year's launch of Cocktails and Cornhole, therefore we will have both events again this year. These events make up the MMA SE Charity Classic and are the single largest revenue producing event for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.
The Butterfly Fund provides emergency financial assistance to families of the children in treatment at partnering medical facilities.
Now more than ever, we are asking for your support for the precious children and their families who are fighting deadly brain and spinal cord tumors. Please consider being a sponsor for the Butterfly Fund in 2022. Go to www.mma-pbtfcharityclassic.com for sponsorship information.
We are again hosting a virtual fundraising event on Thursday, September 15th and a Cocktails and Cornhole event on October 19th, 2022.
We need you to participate in both events - especially the fundraising virtual event
- Virtual Fundraising event (and auction) will take place on September 15, 2022
- MMA SE Charity Classic Cocktails & Cornhole will take place on October 19, 2022 in person at The Green at the Crabapple Marketplace
Thank you to our volunteers!
