2nd Annual Mulligans, Memories & Mediums in Honor of Michael E. Kulp Raises over $20,000 in loving memory of Michael E. Kulp submitted by TAMARA KULP
…a little boy who brought so much spirit to life. The 2nd Annual Mulligans, Memories and Mediums event was held on September 24 at Blue Shamrock Golf Club in Palmerton. The event raised over $20,000. Monies went into the Michael E. Kulp Memorial Fund, Inc., a nonprofit 501c3 created to support children. Proceeds from this fund benefit Children’s Hospital at Lehigh Valley Hospital and scholarships /small schools (Charter, Christian, Catholic, etc.) for children who benefit from small school environments. This includes, but is not limited to, the Michael E. Kulp Scholarship Fund at Saint John Neumann Regional School in Palmerton. Any family who feels their child would thrive in a small school environment, but perhaps can’t afford it, should send their written request to Michael E. Kulp Memorial Fund, Inc. PO Box 342, Walnutport, PA 18088. Last year’s event monies went to the Child Life Department (which runs solely on donations) within Children’s Hospital at Lehigh Valley Health Network. Additional monies 50
went to Saint John Neumann Regional School, the Michael E. Kulp Scholarship Fund at SJNRS, The Circle of Seasons Charter School (Fogelsville), The Mercy Learning Center (Allentown), and The Hillside School (Macungie).
