Funds raised from the tournament provide the operational costs for hundreds of free patient visits at the clinic each year. The golf tournament will start with lunch followed by a shotgun start at noon, with skill events, a cocktail hour, Lowcountry Drawing, buffet dinner, and awards ceremony to follow.

The Clinic provides free healthcare including free primary and specialty care, lab tests and imaging, gynecology, dermatology, psychiatry, ophthalmology and more. BIFMC helps patients address their medical needs, from a common cold to chronic diseases including diabetes, hypertension, coronary disease and depression.
