Finding Better Ways to Treat Cancer.

Fighting Cancer, Playing Golf

WELCOME TO THE ADELE R. DECOF FOUNDATION, a 501(c)(3) created to improve cancer care and treatment.  And how do we do this?  By putting our passion for golf to work! 

 

FOUNDER LEONARD DECOF created the Foundation to honor his wife Adele, who battled breast cancer with grace and a mission to help others.  As Foundation chairman, Leonard hosted the annual ADELE DECOF INVITATIONAL TOURNAMENT, a pro-am event featuring major PGA Tour stars playing with amateurs at outstanding golf clubs around Rhode Island. 

 

BUT WE DON'T JUST DO GOLF!  We also host galas, luncheons, fashion shows and auctions.  Proceeds from these events support the work of local cancer programs, helping to provide advanced care and treatment designed specifically for each patient.  In this way we strive to improve the patient's experience and outcome.

 

 

Take a Swing Against Cancer
Want to take a clinic or play golf with PGA Tour Pros STEPHEN AMES or RYAN PALMER?  They both played in the 2010 DECOF INVITATIONAL. 

 

ADAM SCOTT, JUSTIN ROSE, RYUJI IMADA, BO VAN PELT and many others have also played with us.
