The Ellie’s Hats Golf Classic is an annual fundraiser supporting kids with cancer and their families. Hosted in South Riding, VA, the tournament combines a great day of golf with meaningful impact — raising funds for care packages, direct financial aid, and community support.
About the Event
The Story Behind the Ellie’s Hats Golf Classic
A single act of kindness sparked a movement.
The Golf Classic brings together supporters, players, and sponsors to back a mission that started with one little girl and one simple idea — that hats could brighten someone’s day. Since then, Ellie’s Hats has donated over $850,000 and sent 2,000+ care packages to children across 48 states. Through this tournament, we continue to provide support — financial and emotional — to families navigating childhood cancer.
