Fundraisers

Raise money for S4EA at fun events

Because of the Coronavirus Pandemic, some of the 2021 S4EA Fundraisers may be virtual or on-line. S4EA hopes that the situation will have changed once enough people get the vaccine that we will be able to have in person fundraisers again by the summer of 2021.

Suggested Donation

SPORTS for Exceptional Athletes would normally be hosting our 13th annual “A Taste 4 SPORTS” gala fundraiser on Thursday, May 28th from 6:00 - 9:00pm at the Balboa Park Club in beautiful Balboa Park for 350-400 guests. However, because of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic, S4EA cannot hold a fundraising event with several hundred guests. Therefore, S4EA is having an Alternative Fundraiser to “A Taste 4 SPORTS”. Because “A Taste 4 SPORTS” is our largest fundraiser, S4EA needs your support now more than ever for this Alternative Fundraiser by making a straight donation so that S4EA can provide the same high level programming once the Pandemic is over.

S4EA Golf Classic

The S4EA Golf Classic brings together golf enthusiasts, business elite, and community leaders, all teaming up to support SPORTS for Exceptional Athletes. The 2019 S4EA Golf Classic was as follows:

When: Wed, August 7, 2019, 1-8pm

S4EA Virtual Golf Classic

S4EA would normally be hosting our 2nd annual S4EA Golf Classic gala fundraiser in the fall of 2020 at the Riverwalk Golf Club from 1-8pm for 100-150 golfers. However, because of COVID-19, S4EA cannot hold our S4EA Golf Classic at the Riverwalk Golf Club with over 100 golfers. Therefore, S4EA had a S4EA Virtual Golf Classic in November, culminating on Fri, November 20, 2020 with nearly $8,000 raised for S4EA.

Virtual Golf Classic Highlights

The Ball Drop happened again this year with Marie Alvarez the winner receiving $500 cash.
The Ball Drop, Videos, and the Program were shown on Nov 20th at 6pm on the S4EA Website www.s4ea.org/golf-classic and Facebook www.facebook.com/s4eagolf.
Since no actual golf tournament at Riverwalk Golf Course, we offered a Golf Challenge instead.
During November we had interactive postings on Facebook.
Participated in Facebook Live.
