Benny ATkinson Memorial Golf Tournament

The Benny Atkinson Memorial Golf Tournament is a fund raising event supporting the Newtown Community via youth scholarships and donations to local charities. Benny, a lifelong Newtown resident and businessman, was a vibrant and vital part of the community. This golf tournament is a celebration of Benny's life and proceeds from the tournament will continue to benefit the people, and especially the children, of Newtown.  This year we will be presenting 5 more scholarships(bringing the total scholarships given to $20,000) in Benny's name at the Newtown High School senior awards night. This support has also allowed us to donate $6,000 to the Faith Food Pantry. With your help we will continue to honor Benny and the children and needy of the community.
We are a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, so all donations are fully tax deductible. More information is available @ bennyatkinsongolf.com
