EVENTS UPDATE
Dear Sir/Madam:
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to extend my sincere appreciation and thanks for your support of the 16th Annual Rev. Dr. A. W. Watkins Scholarship Charity Golf Tournament. This year's tournament was played on the Legislator Course of the Capitol Hill Golf Club, Prattville, Alabama. The tournament was a total success due the numerous sponsors, donors, and there were eighty (80) golfers participating in this year’s tournament. Additionally, there were 26 of the 36 scholarship recipients present. I want to especially, thank all the volunteers for providing their support of the tournament. I want to give a special thanks to Terrence Evan, Owner of TJFACT for donating an additional $18,000.00 towards the foundation efforts. Because of the level of participation and generosity of many, the Foundation was able to invest a total of $54,500.00 to assist 36 aspiring students through scholarships. Since 2005 the Foundation has awarded $263,600.00 in scholarships to 236 deserving students.
As a friendly reminder, the Rev. Dr. A. W. Watkins Scholarship Foundation is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization. Therefore, your golf entry fees, sponsorship and donations are tax deductible for 2023. One hundred percent (100%) of your donation goes to the Foundation for scholarships. If you were not able to participate in this year's tournament and wish to provide a contribution or make an additional contribution please do so before December 30, 2023, through our website https://revdrawwatkins.org. or you can mail your check to the mailing address below. If you wish to transfer stock, you may do so through the Foundation Brokerage Account via Regions Investment Solutions, Account # 3RN-95812, DTC # 0701.
