"The Boston Red Sox organization truly understands the power and importance of philanthropy and giving back," said Katy Martinez, Senior Director of Development for Lee Health Foundation. "As champions for local kids in Southwest Florida, the dedicated major league players & staff, Forest Country Club members and event participants have helped raise over $15 million for Golisano Children's Hospital. We are truly honored to be a part of this amazing event series year after year." Shawn Smith, General Manager of Boston Red Sox Florida Operations, added: "We are humbled and blessed to share in such an impactful platform with our partners at Lee Health and Golisano Children's Hospital. The health and wellness of children here in SW Florida will always be a focus for us as we continue to serve our community for years to come." This year, support for this event series will support the development of the new Golisano Children's Hospital Pediatric Surgery Center. Last year, approximately 5,000 outpatient pediatric surgeries and procedures were performed at HealthPark Medical Center to treat fractures, tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, ENT conditions, orthopedic maladies and appendectomy. The new surgery center will provide world-class, compassionate care in a welcoming environment. The center will directly benefit children and families by reducing wait times, increasing efficiencies, lowering costs and improving access to emergency services. Following the success of last season, with $378,000 raised, the goal for the 2024 series is to make a record-breaking impact.
