The Annual Tom Olen Memorial Golf Tournament
The Annual Tom Olen Memorial Golf Outing is held in honor of long-time O'LYN Roofing employee and resident of the Neponset Valley community - Tom Olen - who passed away from cancer in 2010. All of the proceeds from the golf tournament are used to support cancer research organizations, and financially assist families struggling with cancer or organ transplants.
Last year, 92 golfers and 105 dinner attendees raised over $13,000. Thanks to their generous support over the years, the fund has been able to give away $110,000, including $60,000 in scholarships. Previous recipients of the Tom Olen Memorial Fund include the Paint Her Pink Foundation, Promise For Purple, We Love Jesse, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Dana Farber Cancer Research Institute, Long Beach Polar Bears, the Furbush Children’s Fund, and Colton’s Crusade. We also directly support individuals and families struggling to fiance the secondary costs associated with their fight against cancer.
