AAHOA's North Texas charity golf tournament raises $60k for local cause

AAHOA’S NORTH TEXAS Region hosted its second Charity Golf Tournament of 2024, raising around $60,000 for five charities. The association’s final Charity Golf Tournament of 2024 will take place in Daytona Beach, Florida, on Nov. 6.

The beneficiaries of the most recent tournament include the AAHOA Charitable Foundation, Businesses Ending Slavery & Trafficking, SLPS Aastha Charities, Nanu Foundation, and Nora's Home. The event, held on October 14 at Cowboys Golf Club in Grapevine, Texas, drew more than 100 players and 15 sponsors, according to AAHOA.


“As hoteliers, giving back to our communities is a top priority,” said Miraj Patel, AAHOA’s chairman. “It was inspiring to see our members and industry partners in Dallas come together for causes that will have a lasting impact. I am grateful to North Texas regional director Dhiren Masters and the North Texas ambassadors who worked tirelessly to make this event successful.”

The association has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to charities through its Charity Golf Tournaments.

“The tremendous support and contributions at this event reflect the amount raised for these important charities,” said Laura Lee Blake, AAHOA’s president & CEO. “For our members, events like this are more than just a way to give back—they are a chance to connect, collaborate, and strengthen bonds within our community. The generosity shown by our members in Dallas highlights AAHOA's commitment to making a difference together.”

AAHOA also hosted the third annual 2024 HerOwnership Conference in Redondo Beach, California, on Sept. 12 to 13, gathering around 300 women hoteliers to discuss executive presence, hotel ownership, and mental health, aiming to inspire attendees to connect, lead, and succeed in the industry.
