Dear Sponsor:

Mark Moseley, former Redskin and NFL MVP—with the support of GE, GXS, the Washington Redskins Cheerleaders Alumni Association, and the Hogettes —is pleased to host the 19th Annual Mark Moseley Celebrity Golf Tournament on Monday, June 4, 2012 at Raspberry Falls Golf and Hunt Club, Leesburg, Virginia. The event benefits two National Institutes of Health charities: Special Love and Friends of the Clinical Center.

With the continued economic difficulties, it is vitally important we continue this fundraising activity. In 2012 Special Love celebrates 30 years of helping kids and families live “Beyond the C” and with your sponsorship we can make this a terrific year. The 2011 tournament netted $101,000 which was split between Special Love and Friends of the Clinical Center.

The day includes golf on a premier golf course, continental breakfast, mingling with sports figures, including former Washington Redskin players and cheerleaders, TV and radio personalities, tournament contests, mulligans, lunch, on-course refreshments, a reception, dinner, golfing awards, silent and live auctions and a raffle.

These charities fill critical needs. Special Love supports children from Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia who have been diagnosed with cancer as well as their families. Special Love provides year-round activities for the parents and siblings, including week-long summer camps. The cost to send one ill child to camp for a week is $650.00. Friends of the Clinical Center provides emergency financial assistance to families of patients of NIH’s National Clinical Centers, paying for financial burdens triggered by their illnesses and their participation in medical research at the NIH. Friends of the Clinical Center spends an average of $700.00 per family needing emergency financial assistance in order to continue their treatments. This event is the single largest outside fundraiser for both charities and enables them to focus their staff time on program services instead of fundraising.

There are many opportunities to support the tournament. If you are unable to sponsor a foursome or any of the other activities, perhaps you could donate an item for the silent or live auction or a prize for one of the golfing contests. This event offers sponsors the opportunity to host clients or provide recognition to deserving employees while supporting these charities. Attached you will find information on the charities, the various sponsorships, the 2011 sponsors, and a Schedule of Events. We accept monetary donations.

Your support is greatly appreciated and will be fully acknowledged. Your contributions are to the R & W Foundation and are tax deductible (subject to applicable tax regulations). For information on this tournament and how you can get involved, please contact Joe Pellegrino, Tournament Chairman at 202-637-4336 or Pat Carnright, Tournament Secretary at 202-253-2361.

On behalf of Special Love and Friends of the Clinical Center, thank you.
