The Foundation for Ellis Medicine

 

The Foundation ensures quality healthcare in our community by raising, investing and distributing funds that support the lifesaving work performed at Ellis Medicine. Through charitable gifts, The Foundation helps advance Ellis’ mission to meet the health and wellness needs of our community with excellence.

UPCOMING EVENT

Pro Am Golf Tournament

The Ellis Pro-Am Golf Tournament returns to the beautiful Mohawk Golf Club in Schenectady and offers professional play for every foursome. Your foursome will be matched for 18 holes of golf with a PGA professional if you are playing in the afternoon flight.

The event also offers a Morning Flight option for golfers, with foursomes not accompanied by a PGA professional.

The Pro-Am Golf Tournament carries on the Ellis tradition of great golf for a great cause. Proceeds support Ellis Medicine’s lifesaving programs, helping us provide advanced care, upgrade equipment, and improve health outcomes for our entire community.

Cristine Cioffi, Esq.

"My vision and hope for Ellis is simply that it will always be here. I live in this community. In my own times of need, I don't want to have to go to Albany. I want to be treated here by the talented physicians, nurses, and techs who make Ellis great, and many of whom are friends. We have to make sure that Ellis is strong and that it lasts."
