About Us

About Us

Cancer is a disease that unfortunately affects all of us in one way or another. FORE Cancer Research was formed by Mark Thomas as a grass roots vehicle to help raise funds and awareness for cancer research. After losing his Aunt (Mary Bolte) to a long battle with ovarian cancer in the fall of 2006, her courage gave Mark the inspiration to try and make a difference.

Together with a group of friends and business associates, they have organized and are hosting an event to benefit cancer research. The Charity Pro-Am will provide an opportunity for golfers of all skill levels, business leaders, philanthropists, friends and celebrities to team up for a great cause for what promises to be a fun-filled, memorable event at a fantastic golf venue. Together we CAN make a difference and help put an end, once and for all, to this terrible disease.
