Over $155,000 was raised at the 2nd Annual Jordan’s Furniture Foundation Charity Golf Classic on Monday May 22, 2023 at TPC Boston. Over 135 players and dozens of sponsors helped to raise funds that will go back into local neighborhoods to help families and children dealing with financial, educational, and societal hardships. The golf tournament took place at the award-winning, PGA-approved TPC Boston Golf Course in Norton, MA.
“We are thrilled to not only host another successful fundraiser but to also continue to build the Jordan’s Furniture Foundation that will strengthen the philanthropic legacy that began when my family started the business”, said co-CEO Josh Tatelman. “We are excited to reinforce the personal philosophy of community outreach that has been instilled in us since we were young,” said Josh’s brother and co-CEO Michael Tatelman. “The funds from the Jordan’s Foundation will enable us to partner in so many of the communities in which we serve,” the brothers concluded together.
During the past year, the Jordan’s Foundation has made some significant donations to area programs including $75,000 to Boston Children’s Hospital, a large product donation to the Ron Burton Training Village, a program that assists youth and teens in difficult circumstances, and a major gift to Dana Farber’s CowParade campaign, that supports families in the fight against cancer.
The Jordan’s Charitable Foundation was founded to support local families and children who are facing food insecurities, housing issues, clothing challenges, and financial difficulties. The funds will be distributed through partnerships with local organizations who serve these populations.
