The 25th annual Halliburton Charity Golf Tournament raised $4.5 million for over 100 nonprofit organizations in Houston and across the U.S, once again making it one of the largest non-PGA golf tournament fundraisers in the U.S. This amount includes a $1.5 million matching contribution from Halliburton in recognition of Halliburton’s 100th anniversary, which the Company is celebrating this year. The tournament has raised more than $23 million over the past 25 years, and this year represents the highest annual amount since the tournament first teed-off.
More than 400 golfers participated in the fundraiser held at The Clubs of Kingwood, and over 140 organizations sponsored the event.
“We are grateful for our sponsors of all levels who made this event possible and whose generous contributions helped the tournament break another record. It is an honor to provide the funds to outstanding charities whose work makes a positive difference in the lives of thousands of individuals in dozens of communities every day,” said Jeff Miller, Halliburton chairman, president and CEO.
