RALEIGH, N.C. – Campbell Law School’s Men’s Legal Caucus (MLC) raised $1,500 for the Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA) at its recent golf tournament. The Campbell Law Classic, now in its 20th year, was held March 29 at River Ridge Golf Club. More than 40 participants took part in the golf tournament.
“On behalf of the Men’s Legal Caucus, I want to thank everyone who participated or contributed to the success of this tournament,” said MLC President and third-year student Jake Garris. “We are very proud to make this contribution to a great organization doing amazing things for people with Huntington’s disease.”
Three teams ultimately tied for the lead with a low score of 58, with the tiebreaker going to the second-year student foursome of Adam Elkins, Jonathan Holder, Sean Madden, and Drew Harkins.
“I want to say I truly appreciate you all donating to the HDSA this year,” said HDSA North Carolina Chapter President Lauren Holder. “We at the N.C. Chapter are doing everything we can to help make the quality of life better for the people and families affected by Huntington’s.”
The Huntington’s Disease Society of America is committed to improving the lives of people suffering from the illness, as well as promoting and supporting medical research efforts to eradicate the disease. For more information visit http://www.hdsa.org/.
Founded in 1997, MLC seeks to foster fellowship among members of the Campbell Law community through group activities and philanthropic outreach. Last year MLC raised more than $1,500 for the First Tee of the Triangle via the Campbell Law Classic.
