What is the Boeing Classic FORE BRI campaign?
For the first time, volunteers and supporters from the Boeing Classic are teaming up to create awareness and raise money for Benaroya Research Institute. We are all here for different reasons, but we are all working together to change lives. 
How does it work?
Volunteers and supporters of the tournament can sign up to raise money for BRI. The more you raise, the most awesome prizes you are eligible to receive! And best of all, each donor receives a story about how their gift to BRI is changing real lives in Seattle and beyond. 
Where does my money go?
Funds go to Benaroya Research Institute to support their important research to find causes and cures for autoimmune diseases. A small portion of each donation goes to support the online campaign. 
Who can participate?
Although the majority of us are volunteers for the Boeing Classic golf tournament, anyone can join in and help us make a difference. 
Are there prizes?
Yes, great ones! Click here to learn more.

I'm volunteering for the Boeing Classic, and raising funds for BRI!

I’m fanatic about golf – playing, watching, anything I can do to be around golf – which is one reason I volunteer for the Boeing Classic Golf Tournament. The other reason is to support the Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI). BRI is the international leader in immune system and autoimmune disease research. Do you know someone who suffers from psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, diabetes (and 50 others)? Well, then you know someone with an autoimmune disease. BRI is one of the few research institutes in the world dedicated to finding causes and cures to eliminate autoimmune diseases

Please join me in showing your support by giving whatever it is you can to my campaign. Any amount helps. Your gifts make a real difference in the lives of the 1 in 20 Americans, and the millions of others worldwide, who suffer from autoimmune diseases right now. Don’t forget to share with your friends as well!

Thank you!
Kristin

About the Boeing Classic and BRI

img_canyonThe Boeing Classic is an Official Event on the PGA TOUR Champions Tour, which features the legends of golf 50 years of age or older. Jay Don Blake is the tournament’s defending Champion after a playoff victory at the 2012 Boeing Classic, which also featured record numbers of volunteers (1,035) and spectators (81,000) during Tournament Week. The winner of the Champions Tour’s 2012 Tournament Business Affairs Award, 2011 Players Award and 2010 Presidents Award, in the tournament’s eight-year history more than $4 million has been raised for the Heart Institute at Virginia Mason Medical Center, the Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason and additional Greater Seattle Charities.

The 2013 event will be played August 19-25 at TPC Snoqualmie Ridge. For additional information, please visit www.BoeingClassic.com.

Medical research conducted at the world-renowned Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) has resulted in major advances against 80+ autoimmune diseases, such as type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease and others.  BRI’s collaborative approach accelerates discovery and translates laboratory breakthroughs to the prevention, treatment and ultimately, elimination of these diseases.  Progress against one autoimmune disease is progress against them all.
