Hello Everyone,
It is that time of year again and the AAIB is having their celebrity golf outing on July 31’st at the prestigious Ridgewood Country Club in Paramus, NJ. We are expecting an exceptional turn out and all-star class of celebrities.
We sincerely hope you can join us and support this 501C3 charity scholarship program supporting inner city youth around the United States. As of last year, we have granted over $250,000 in scholarships and the applications are growing every year as word spreads nationally. This tournament plays an enormous role in these young men and women attaining higher education, so we ask for your support in July.
