2024 Golf Fundraiser
2024 Golf Fundraiser
Sunday, June 2, 2024
Rich Harvest Farms, Sugar Grove, IL
For over 10 years, golfers have been raising funds for medical repurposing research at Cures Within Reach’s annual golf event. In 2024, we played again at Rich Harvest Farms, an exclusive private course rarely accessible by non-members and named the 5th best new private course in the US by Golf Digest when it debuted in 1999.
The pandemic shined a spotlight on what we’ve known for over a decade: the fastest way to therapeutic impact is testing already approved therapies for unsolved diseases. We support quickly testing drugs, devices and more that are already safe and effective for one disease to treat another disease.
In 2024, a portion of the proceeds from this event will once again help to fund new clinical trials to be selected to impact pediatrics and/or veterans.
We’re grateful to our sponsors!

Funding Game-Changing Clinical Trials that Make Real Patient Impact
Prior to June 2, registered golfers donated or raised at least $1,500 ($6,000/foursome) for Cures Within Reach to support our mission: testing already approved treatments for new indications – driving more treatments to more patients through repurposing.
A portion of the proceeds from our 2022 and 2023 events helped to find, select and manage 6 oncology, pediatric and veterans clinical trials. In 2021: 3 pediatric clinical trials; in 2020: 4 infectious disease clinical trials; in 2019: 2 pediatric clinical trials; and in 2018: 2 oncology clinical trials. Past events have supported clinical trials in:
- Infectious Disease: COVID19, dengue and tuberculosis
- Neurological Disease: Alzheimer’s disease, autism, neurodegenerative diseases, PTSD and traumatic brain injury
- Oncology: Thyroid cancer, brain cancer, prostate cancer, osteosarcoma, bladder cancer and blood cancer
- Pediatric: Autoimmune, oncology, liver, malnutrition, hearing loss, vascular malformations, muscular and other rare diseases
