NEW YORK, October 4, 2023 – Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights will host its 34th annual golf tournament on Friday, October 13, at the Hyannisport Club in Hyannis Port, Mass.
Special guests from the sports and entertainment industries will join Kerry Kennedy, the president of Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, and several members of the Kennedy family, for the day’s festivities. VIP attendees include actor/comedian Keegan-Michael Key; actors Tim Daly, Richard Kind, Dennis Haysbert, and Matt McCoy; actress Corbin Reid; former Pittsburgh Steelers player Max Starks IV; former New England Patriots players Tully Banta-Cain and Max Lane; and former Boston Red Sox player and Cy Young Award winning pitcher Jim Lonborg, among others. Teeing off at 11:00 am, the tournament will conclude with closing festivities and an awards ceremony.
The Hyannisport Club is less than a mile from the Kennedy Compound and has been a favored venue for the family for generations. Proceeds from the tournament support Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights’ programs and strategic litigation, powering the organization’s social justice and civil rights work around the globe.
“Year after year, our faithful donors, advocates, and friends come together to celebrate the work of this organization and the power of our combined efforts,” said Kerry Kennedy. “The unwavering support and generosity of this community fuels our day-to-day work and enables Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights to continue building the more peaceful and just world my father envisioned.”
