The Rich Gedman Golf Tournament is one of the most helpful fundraisers for the WooSox Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the Worcester Red Sox, which seeks to make dreams come true for the families of New England and WooSox Nation. The foundation’s focus on its four pillars––Education, Social Justice, Conquering Cancer, and Diamond Sports—has expanded to an entire “Starting 9,” addressing Mental Health, Veterans, Frontline Heroes, Pets, and the Arts.

The net proceeds from this year’s outing will help fund the WooSox Foundation’s WooSox Scholars program, which provides Worcester Public Schools 8th graders with college scholarships of $10,000 apiece. Since its announcement on January 28, 2020, the WooSox Scholars program has selected 20 students, some of whom are now in college, and has committed $200,000 to them. This year’s Class of 2026, bringing the total to 24, will be announced in June.
