Auction & Golf Tournament Benefits HMP

08/25/11

Kathy Koehler and the Areola Angels partnered with Higher M-Pact for Kathy's 2nd annual charity auction and golf tournament.   The golf tournament was chaired by Kathy Koehler and Pat Murphy who worked with their committee including Higher M-Pact staff to make these events hugely successful.  Both events benefit Higher M-Pact youth, helping continue the vison of transforming high-risk urban youth into tomorrow's leaders. The auction was held on August 25th at the beautiful home of Els Thermote & Larent Vannest.  Over 200 guests attended and participated in amazing silent and live auctions throughout the evening.  The golf tournament was then hosted on August 26th at the Falcon Ridge Golf Course in Lenexa, Kansas.  The event was sold out with 133 golfers spending a day out on the green and raising dollars for Higher M-Pact.  Joining the efforts of the hard-working committee were the Higher M-Pact Leaders of Tomorrow Youth.  Several spent the day at the tournament assisting with player bag-drop and registration.  The youth were happy to meet so many of their supporters in the community.
