Our mission: To award financial assistance as well as provide emotional support to individuals from the Chicagoland area who experience hardships due to cancer or a cancer-related illness.
We're fighting cancer... one family at a time.
Now celebrating its 17th year, the BTB Foundation - Beat Tom and Bill Charity Golf Outing, Dinner and Auction has raised and given over $1 MILLION Dollars to help local families battling cancer and several cancer-related charities.
Our annual outing was started in 2002 to raise funds for a lifelong friend’s wife who was undergoing breast cancer treatment. That inaugural year we raised $3,000 with 30 friends in attendance. Since then, the outing has kept growing; last year we saw record crowds of over 300 golfers on the course and over 500 people for dinner, raising over $135,000 in net proceeds.
Tom and Bill Latourette, along with a host of friends, family and volunteers, want to continue helping local families and cancer patients. Our outing brings together complete strangers and turns them into lifelong friends.
