2025 Hit Fore Hope
On July 21, 2025, the Cleveland community came together for Hit Fore Hope’s Drive, Chip, and Putt competition, raising more than $174,000 in support of University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center. The event welcomed over 125 participants and engaged players, families, and supporters through raffles, auctions, and a full day of connection, highlighted by shared breakfast and lunch.
On November 2, 2025, Hit Fore Hope expanded its mission with its Pickleball Tournament, bringing together players of all skill levels, volunteers, and community supporters for another impactful day of fundraising and awareness.
Together, these two events raised more than $193,000, directly supporting cancer patients, families, and vital programs at University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center — a powerful reflection of what this community can accomplish when it comes together with purpose.
