Representatives of the 2026 Swing for Pink Golf Tournament presented a $10,407.47 check to the Central Carolina Hospital Auxiliary on Wednesday, Nov. 11, at Central Carolina Hospital. The donation will benefit the CCH Auxiliary Breast Cancer Comfort Care Fund, which helps local breast cancer patients obtain comfort items and screenings that may not be covered by insurance.
The annual charity golf tournament was held Oct. 3 at Carolina Trace Country Club with sponsorship from Adcock Real Estate Services. Golfers, volunteers, and sponsors came together to raise funds and support breast cancer patients in the community.
“Raising more than $10,000 is a true reflection of how much this community cares for one another,” said Dave Santoemma, CEO of Central Carolina Hospital. “Thank you to our golfers, volunteers and sponsors for making this year’s tournament such a success. Your support brings real comfort to patients during one of the hardest times in their lives.”
Established in 2011, the CCH Auxiliary Breast Cancer Comfort Care Fund assists patients with comfort items and screening or testing expenses that may not be covered by insurance. The fund also supports patients who are uninsured or experiencing financial hardship and is available to both women and men.
Comfort items may include caps, scarves, hats, wigs, mastectomy bras, breast prostheses, and compression garments for patients with lymphedema. The fund may also help cover screening mammograms, diagnostic mammograms, and breast biopsies.
