Annual Event Raises $600,000 to Support the Conine Clubhouse and Families in Need
February 12, 2026– More than $600,000 was raised during 32nd Annual Conine All-Star Golf Classic where golfers, community leaders and philanthropists recently gathered for an inspiring day on the green in support of Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital at the Fort Lauderdale Country Club. This exciting day was one filled with golf, hope and connection.
Co-founded by Jeff Conine, former MLB star and Miami Marlin’s Hall of Famer, and his wife Cindy Conine with presenting sponsor the Levitetz Family Foundation, this year’s tournament continued a legacy of giving back that has spanned more than three decades. The Conine All-Star Golf Classic proceeds benefit Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital’s mission to deliver exceptional, family-centered pediatric care to children across South Florida and beyond.
“We are incredibly grateful for the Conine family’s unwavering dedication and support,” said Kelley Morris, President of Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundation. “Each year, this exciting event continues to grow—just as the needs of the Conine Clubhouse continue to grow as well. Thanks to the incredible generosity of the Conine family and our community, we are able to provide housing and critical support to families during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.”
Since its inception, the Conine Classic has raised millions to support families at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. The tournament has helped cover the operating expenses of the Conine Clubhouse, a home-away-from-home for families of children receiving long-term treatment. The Clubhouse is a nonprofit residence funded through donations to the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundation. With each year, the impact grows, highlighting how friendly competition, community and philanthropy can come together in powerful ways.
The Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundation advances the hospital’s mission through philanthropy that supports patient care, family services, programs, facilities, and lifesaving equipment, ensuring children and families receive world-class medicine along with compassion, comfort and hope.
