36th Annual Semper Fidelis Golf Classic was a success!

What a day for Golf! What started out as a wet and rainy day ended as a beautiful day for golf! Marine Corps University Foundation was successful with another golf fundraiser thanks to the participants and players who came ready to play. Medal of Honor Golf Course located in Quantico, Virginia is always a great location to host our annual event. This year marked the 36th year of our Semper Fidelis Golf Classic and we are proud to  continue to support the Professional Military Education (PME) of Officer and Enlisted Marines at the Marine Corps University and throughout the Operating Forces. Our motto is “ A Mission that Matters!”, and with continued support from our sponsors, donors, and supporters we make a difference.

The Marine Corps University Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that relies on tax deductible gifts, is the only Marine Corps charity solely dedicated to supporting the Professional Military Education (PME) of Officer and Enlisted Marines at the Marine Corps University and throughout the Operating Forces. Special events, such as the Semper Fidelis Golf Classic provide funding that supports Marine Leaders and their Professional Military Education worldwide.  The University leadership’s vision has been twofold – to prepare Marines at all levels to address complex security challenges in a rapidly transforming world through an unparalleled education in security and warfighting studies, and to groom the next generation of decision makers within the Marine Corps, government, and the private sector, equipping them with the critical thinking skills that will enable them to achieve success in any number of career paths. The Foundation relies on tax-exempt contributions from our Semper Fidelis Golf Classic, and those who support Marine Corps causes, including Corporate Members, Marine friends, former Marines helping Marines and donations in memory or in honor of someone special. We are grateful for your tax-deductible donation to support the Professional Military Education of active duty and reserve Marines. Semper Fi!
