About the tournament

A beloved tradition, back on the fairway

The Drive for the Cure was Life & Breath’s very first fundraiser, launched in 1999 and running strong for over a decade. We’re thrilled to bring it back — this year at the spectacular Hayfields Country Club in Hunt Valley, MD.

Every dollar raised supports the Sarcoidosis Planner, patient education events like SaySarcoidosis, and ongoing advocacy. Most sarcoidosis treatments are still prescribed off-label — your round makes a real difference.
