The Victory Project – The Victory Gala and Sporting Invitational

The Victory Gala and Sporting Invitational raised funds for The Victory Project. Margaret and Josh Arnold and Dana Linville and Jim Alderman served as the co-chairmen. The Victory Gala was held at the Muehlebach Tower of the Kansas City Marriott Downtown, and the Sporting Invitational golf tournament was held at Loch Lloyd Country Club. Proceeds support The Victory Project’s mission to unite supporters, players, and staff to make a tangible difference in the lives of children with cancer and their families.
