The American Association for the Improvement of Boxing ‘s Annual Celebrity Golf Invitational is this weekend, October 11th and 12th, at the Tropicana Atlantic City and Galloway National Golf Club. Mark Breland, Gerry Cooney, Terry Norris, Renaldo Snipes, Pinklon Thomas, and Tim Witherspoon are just a few of the boxing champions planning to attend.

The event is a fundraiser for the AAIB Scholarship Fund for amateur boxers. We have so many scholarship winners from different states this year, we cannot present the award checks in person as we have in the past. Instead, we will use the moment to kick off the final month of our first online crowdfunding campaign for AAIB Scholars coinciding on Indiegogo.com.

Registration is still open. The forecast predicts another beautiful autumn holiday weekend. There is a private celebrity cocktail party hosted by the Tropicana on Sunday night, and a 10AM brunch before the tournament on Columbus Day. See photos from past Golf Invitationals on our Flickr page and download this year's brochure.

It is an unforgettable event for a great cause. You can also email us for more information. Hope to see you on the green.

The AAIB Scholarships Indiegogo Campaign

September 17, 2015 Steve Acunto

The American Association for the Improvement of Boxing has teamed up with Indiegogo.com, the world’s largest global crowdfunding platform, to promote its 2015 Fundraising Campaign for AAIB Scholars. Crowdfunding is fundraising that collects donations from large crowds of individuals gathered through the Internet, mobile computers, and social media. Indiegogo is the largest international site that works with nonprofits like the AAIB.

You can visit or share the link: http://igg.me/at/aaiboxing.

The two-month online campaign started last night at midnight, will pick up speed around the halfway mark during the 2015 AAIB Golf Invitational over Columbus Day weekend, and will end on our founder Stephen B. Acunto’s 99th birthday on November 15th. Donation perks, including exclusive signed items and boxing memorabilia from Steve’s extensive archive, will change throughout. The page also features our new AAIB #BoxingChance video.

Get over to the site, pick up a perk for yourself, and then spread the word!
