The Sunshine State welcomes the 11th edition of the GFDD Golf Tournament

January 24, 2018

The Global Foundation for Democracy & Development is proud to announce its 11th Golf Tournament to be held on March 5th, 2018 in Miami, Florida. This year’s tournament will take participants to the breathtaking views of Miami’s Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne. Don’t miss the chance to support the cause!

Beginning at 10:00 a.m., the day’s festivities kick off with brunch and quality time perfecting your swing on the driving range. Then, at 11:00 p.m., the tournament begins in earnest with a ceremonial shotgun start with the presence of Hall of Fame Dominican Baseball player, Juan Marichal, and the former President of the Dominican Republic and President of GFDD/Funglode, Dr. Leonel Fernández. Make sure your game is in peak condition: awards will be given to the day’s best teams as well as its top precision shooters. A cocktail reception will follow the tournament, and after, awards will be presented at a banquet.

Since 2010, GFDD Golf Tournaments have been a venue where high-ranking officials, industry leaders, business executives, and influential members of the Dominican community can get together to support development in the Dominican Republic and bring awareness of important issues.
