40th Annual Gallivan Golf Tournament for Cystic Fibrosis

2024 is a milestone year for the Gallivan Golf Tournament for Cystic Fibrosis, and the Gallivan Team is motivated more than ever to continue to improve the lives of those living with CF.

Since 1984, The Gallivan has raised an incredible 2.5 million dollars through the participation and generosity of players, donors and sponsors. 100% of proceeds from the event are channeled back into CF Research, with the goal of helping the scientific community continue its’ mission of one day finding a cure for cystic fibrosis.

Registration for new players will be available soon!
