Madison welcomes Waisman Center golf benefit

The Friends of the Waisman Center will host its annual Golf Benefit in Madison this August. The event is designed to bring golfers, sponsors, and community members together for a day of friendly competition while raising funds to support individuals and families affected by developmental disabilities and neurodegenerative diseases.

The event will feature an 18-hole round of golf, lunch, and an evening buffet with awards and a reception. Participants will also have opportunities to purchase raffle tickets and mulligans before the shotgun start. Organizers say the fundraiser will support the Waisman Center's clinical care, research, and outreach programs for people living with conditions such as autism, Down syndrome, and Alzheimer's disease.

The annual golf benefit plays an important role in helping the Waisman Center meet the growing demand for its services. Funds raised through the event will help advance research, expand clinical programs, and provide resources for individuals with disabilities and their families throughout the region.

Organizers are expected to rely on banner and poster printing to promote the fundraiser and encourage community participation. More information is available on the organization's official website.

The 2026 Friends of the Waisman Center Golf Benefit is scheduled to take place on Monday, August 3, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. at Maple Bluff Country Club in Madison. Registration will begin during the morning, followed by lunch, a noon shotgun start, and an evening reception with dinner and awards.
