Case Study: Alzheimer’s Association grows the End ALZ Golf Tournament to $17,000 with GolfStatus

Alzheimer’s Association grows End ALZ golf fundraiser to $17,000 with GolfStatus

The Alzheimer’s Association, through organizer Lisa Matthews, faced challenges in expanding its End ALZ golf fundraiser. The event struggled with managing higher-dollar sponsorships, manual registrations and payments, and introducing new contest elements while relying on a volunteer team that needed better collaborative tools. They turned to vendor GolfStatus for its golf event management solution.

Using GolfStatus’s platform, the event created a professional website for registration and communication, introduced new sponsorship packages like pin flags and a hole-in-one contest, and streamlined day-of logistics with live scoring. This solution from GolfStatus helped the tournament grow from raising $680 with 27 golfers in 2013 to $17,000 with 120 golfers in 2025, while also creating a more polished event and stronger community connections.
