On August 26, 2019, Gift of Life President and CEO Howard M. Nathan and Dan Sinnott co-hosted our 15th annual Kidney Open Golf Outing at the DuPont Country in Wilmington, Del.

More than $103,000 was raised for Gift of Life Family House’s Adopt-A-Family Program, which subsidizes the cost of staying at the Family House to keep the room fee low. The program also covers costs for families who cannot afford the nightly fee, ensuring no family is ever turned away due to an inability to pay.

Gift of Life Family House is grateful to all of the generous sponsors, volunteers, and the 138 golfers who supported our event!
