Celebrities are invited to play golf at no cost and have their expenses, if any paid for by the foundation. The public is invited to play golf with the celebrities for a fee, which is set each year by the board of directors. Corporate sponsors are solicited for donations of funds, players' gifts, awards and items to be auctioned at a banquet. Tee prizes and awards are acquired and given to each player out of tournament funds. Solicitations on behalf of the odessa brown children's clinic raises sponsorship of most, if not all expenses incurred in connection with the tournament.

The Lenny Wilkens Foundation is doing great work in support of a very good organization in Seattle. My only constructive comment is that I wish more of the funds raised went to the organization(s) that they support. Annual fundraising dinner and golf outting appear to be net users of fund cash and not positive cash generators.
