In the spring of 2011 we hosted our first Tap Cancer Out BJJ Open to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The event was outstanding, attracting nearly 200 competitors, 50 of which fundraised on behalf of Tap Cancer Out, raising over $17,000 before the tournament had even started! After all was said and done, over $21,000 had been raised, allowing our nonprofit to provide the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society with gifts totaling over $28,000 in 2011.
With that kind of success in our first attempt at a fundraising tournament (quite possibly the first BJJ fundraising tournament ever), we couldn?t stop there. So in 2013, our plan is to host four fundraising tournaments with a goal of raising over $100,000!
To that end, we are happy to announce the dates and locations for the first two Tap Cancer Out BJJ Open tournaments in 2013.
