The Joe Schmit Celebrity Golf Tournament and Online Auction
The Joe Schmit Celebrity Golf Tournament is now in its 16th year fundraising money for Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities. All the proceeds from this auction will go to matching children with a caring, responsible adult mentor. The results of these matches are nothing short of remarkable. Children who have a Big Brother or Sister in their lives are less likely to do drugs, skip school or get in trouble because their self-esteem is so much higher. |
