The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV) today announced that
the 2023 Travelers Championship generated a tournament-record
amount for charity – more than $3 million for more than 160
nonprofits.
“History-making moments – both on and off the course – are what
this tournament is known for, and as a PGA TOUR designated event,
the 2023 Travelers Championship certainly lived up to that
reputation,”
said Alan Schnitzer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at
Travelers. “Our champion, Keegan Bradley, put on an impressive
performance against the best player field in tournament history and
in front of one of the largest crowds to line the 18th green. That
level of excitement keeps fans and players coming back, helping us
make important contributions to worthy causes and the local
economy. Thank you to everyone who came out to the course and
contributed to a record amount for charity, adding to the tens of
millions of dollars generated for more than 900 organizations since
we became title sponsor.”
The Travelers Championship donates 100% of its net proceeds to
charity. This year’s primary beneficiary is The Hole in the Wall
Gang Camp, a nonprofit based in Ashford, Connecticut, that provides
care and a traditional camp experience to children with serious
illnesses and their families through programs celebrating the fun,
friendship and spirit of childhood. Other tournament charities
support important causes such as education, housing, human services
and mental health.
“This week was one we will not soon forget,” said Andy Bessette,
Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer at
Travelers. “We celebrated a number of new tournament records as the
community embraced New England’s only PGA TOUR event. We are
grateful for the support shown by the best fans and players on
TOUR, and the countless others who have helped us grow this event
into the elite tournament that it is today. We are looking forward
to seeing everyone next year.”
The 2024 Travelers Championship will take place June 17-23 at
TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut. For more information,
