Procella Golf Umbrella Charity Event New Sponsorship Deal Announced
Procella Umbrella, has announced that it will sponsor the Annual Lots of Love for Landon Charity Golf Outing to help raise money for the Cystinosis Research Foundation. It will donate an umbrella, offer discount vouchers, and offer $5 per sale.
LAS VEGAS - May 29, 2016 - Procella Umbrella, the golf umbrella specialist, has announced a hole sponsorship ahead of the upcoming 5th Annual Lots of Love for Landon Charity Golf Outing. The company is donating $200 to the research organisation, offering an umbrella as a door prize, and giving golfers who participate in the outing a 20% discount coupon to be used on its site. In addition to this, Procella Umbrella will donate $5 per umbrella bought using this voucher to the charity.
The Lots of Love for Landon Charity Golf Outing was started five years ago for Landon Hartz, who will be turning 6 years old in April, and was diagnosed with a rare disease called cystinosis at only 14 months old. Cystinosis is a genetic metabolic disease that causes an amino acid, cystine, to accumulate in various organs of the body. Cystine crystals accumulate in the kidneys, eyes, liver, muscles, pancreas, brain, and white blood cells.
Without specific treatment, children with Cystinosis develop end stage kidney failure at approximately age nine. Landon takes medication several times a day through a MIC-KEY button implanted in his stomach in an attempt to counteract the effects of the disease. Every dollar raised at this event goes directly to the Cystinosis Research Foundation to help fund research and help raise awareness for this disease that has forever affected him and his family.
The charity event takes place on June 3, 2016, at Black Hawk Golf Course in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. Lunch will be provided, along with beer, pop and water, with dinner and a Chinese auction to follow. There are still places open for interested parties to take part and enter for a chance to win the umbrella. Golfers are asked to register by May 27, 2016, and they can do so by visiting https://cystinosisresearch.org/
Any golfers who pick up a voucher from Procella Umbrella on the day can visit the company's Amazon store, where a wide range of umbrellas is listed. Products include a 62 inch rain and wind resistant umbrella, and a choice of other sizes for easy carrying: http://amazon.com/
