This round of golf is not about the score, it is a gathering of individuals committed to one cause, to eradicate breast cancer. – Beth Daniel, LPGA Hall of Fame Member

The LIFE Event (LPGA Pros in the Fight to Eradicate Breast Cancer) mission is to continue to help eradicate breast cancer as a life-threatening disease, while reaching out to a younger generation of women and providing them with information about the importance of early detection and healthy breast care practices.

The Val Skinner Foundation promotes these initiatives through two LIFE Series events.

LIFE Event

The 2008 LIFE Event in Paramus, N.J. will be held on on May 19.

The biggest names from the LPGA will meet May 19 at the Ridgewood Country Club in Paramus, N.J. for the ninth LIFE Event, which benefits breast cancer research and advocacy.

The pro-am golf outing, hosted by the Val Skinner Foundation, will raise $500,000 for the breast cancer awareness and research programs.

Aside from golfing with an LPGA Professional, participants will enjoy a LIFE Lessons clinic for beginning and intermediate golfers, and a reception where LIFE Heroes will be recognized.
