September 27, 2021 marked the triumphant return of our annual NSF Golf Tournament and Auction. Together, we raised $325,000 to support the NSF Medical Mission Program and had a lot of fun in the process! The sun may not have been shining, but spirits were high as NSF supporters and NuVasive employees came together for a day of FUNdraising at the beautiful Del Mar Country Club.
Players of all levels turned out for fierce, but friendly competition, course games and festivities benefiting life-changing spine surgery around the world. Post-tournament, participants enjoyed a bite to eat, silent and live auctions, and heard from Executive Director, Jamie Cali and Honduran Doctor, David Vargas about recent and future NSF medical mission trips.
This event is the cornerstone of NSF’s fundraising efforts and is the primary way we fund medical mission trips that bring life-changing spine surgery, training and technology to under-resourced communities around the world.
A huge heartfelt thank you to our loyal sponsors (listed below), who along with the players and volunteers make this event a success, year-after-year. Your generosity and passion for helping patients around the world continues to inspire the NSF team – THANK YOU!
We look forward to next year’s event and hope we can count on your continued support!
