Kelly Cares Foundation Golf Outing

On a beautiful day in late June, supportive fans and friends of the Kelly Cares Foundation gathered together for an afternoon of golf and commradery at the Wynstone Country Club in Chicago, IL. There were no hole in ones made, but a few 300+ drives including one by the Kelly Cares Foundation co-founder Paqui Kelly.

The Kelly Cares Foundtion was established by Notre Dame head football coach Brian Kelly and his wife Paqui. The foundation supports initiatives that align with their family's values: health, education and community.

With Lisa Klunder (Executive Dir. of Kelly Cares Foundation), Paqui Kelly (Founder), Rosie Burrill (Dir. of Operations), Lauren Jones (Vice President of CGA, Inc.)
