December 1 – Score a hole in one by helping kids develop skills and self esteem and have a golf tournament named after your company to boot.

The Santa Monica Police Department is looking for a “title sponsor” for the Charity Golf Classic benefiting the Police Activities League (PAL) on June 15, 2009 at Mountain Gate Country Club. The cost -- $50,000.

Companies who can’t afford the naming rights have plenty of other options to help provide “a casual, no cost, nurturing environment,” where children between the ages of 6 and seventeen can “safely explore their own potential,” according to PAL’s mission.

Opportunities abound – from a $300 donation to have a company’s name on a sign at a sponsored tee to $25,000 to be “Chief Sponsor,” assuring high visibility at the tournament and all related events.

“Embracing the six pillars of Character Counts, PAL enriches lives, develops skills, and bolsters self-esteem,” according to the organization’s mission.

“Trust and understanding flourish among the diversity of children, their peers, dedicated adults, and officers of the community. Committed to creativity, independence, and leadership, PAL encourages youth to reach their full potential.”

A unique community organization, PAL “fosters trust between youth and the men and women of the Santa Monica Police Department in a safe and nurturing environment,” according to the organization.

The money raised from the 2009 Santa Monica Police Activities League Charity Golf Classic will be used support educational efforts, arts programs and physical fitness training.
