Brad and Colleen Johansen first heard about OneCity, a nonprofit that facilitates lifechange for the people of Cincinnati in the areas of education, unemployment, poverty and family in early 2005, and they were inspired to get involved!
That same year, their first Celebrity Golf Tournament was born, but never could they have imagined the impact their efforts would have on the Cincinnati area! After seven years, well over a million dollars has been raised and gone directly to multiple life-changing initiatives. Three other charities have also benefited — Cancer Free Kids, Neediest Kids of All, and CityLink Center.
In June, 2013 and for the fifth straight year, the OneCity ProAm (now called the CityLink ProAm) will be held on June 23-24, 2013) will include professional golfers as well as local celebrities at the beautiful Triple Crown Country Club in Union, KY. We look forward to another huge success!
