Daniel DeLoach Memorial Golf Tournament

Daniel's Story:

Born with a rare disease called Proteus Syndrome, Daniel’s parents were told he would not live, and then later would not walk.  Though, through more than 100 surgeries, multiple body casts, and constant physical pain, Daniel was a fighter...proving them wrong and living life to its fullest.  As a child with physical differences, he was on the swim team and pushed to do everything his older brother and sister did.  He graduated from Blessed Sacrament, Benedictine, and attended Savannah College of Art & Design.  He made those around him better people, sometimes unknowingly, teaching us to appreciate life and to accept people for the goodness within them.  Daniel was an inspiration to everyone that met him.

We have raised over $100,000.00 in donations & in-kind gifts in just two years!  in 2019, the DDMF donated OVER $25,000 to the Daniel DeLoach Distance Learning Lab at Blessed Sacrament School, underwrote a technology camp for children at the Savannah Center for Blind & Low Vision, and in partnership SCAD,  provided a grant for "Virtual Reality For Good," creating VR experiences for patients.

Your participation in the Memorial Golf Tournament helps the DDMF give back to the Blessed Sacrament community AND supports children that are underprivileged or have special needs by providing technology to improve their quality of life. The fund also supports the Proteus Syndrome Foundation.
