CINCINNATI GOLDEN GLOVES BATTLE ON OHIO
On Wednesday, September 3rd, Cincinnati Golden Gloves for Youth held its 8th Annual Battle on the Ohio Fundraiser at the Montgomery Inn Boathouse. The event featured an electrifying matchup between Cincinnati Golden Gloves and the Bridges Beyond Boxing Team from Belfast, Ireland. Proceeds from the fundraiser directly support CGGY’s yearround boxing and life skills program, which is offered at no cost to local youth. The initiative aims to foster discipline, confidence, and resilience through Olympic-style boxing and mentorship—empowering at-risk youth across Cincinnati. This year’s fundraiser proved to be a tremendous success, marked by a generous $50,000 check presented by Jeffrey Cummins of Coca-Cola Consolidated. Altogether, the event raised an impressive $203,000 to advance CGGY’s mission.
