American Electric Power, this year’s presenting sponsor will host the Ohio Chapter’s August 19th Classic at the New Albany Country Club, 1 One Club Lane, New Albany.

The Chapter’s new website www.OhioNFLAlumni.com, produced by its new agency partner, Big Picture Marketunities, provides a marketing and communications platform for members of the NFL Alumni to grow their connection to the community while allowing more of the community to engage in local NFL Alumni efforts.

“The new website is a dynamic improvement that provides valuable information of our involvement throughout Ohio,” said Jim Karsatos, Ohio Chapter President. “It features the NFL Alumni Association’s values and mission and connects the national association’s state chapter to local communities, identifying the educational efforts to support local area charities.”

More than $1M has been raised by the NFL Alumni Association Ohio Chapter in the past two decades with proceeds directly benefitting local area charities. This year’s recipients include Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Columbus. These organizations, committed to child advocacy, align with the NFL Alumni mission of Caring for Kids.

“The NFL has been an integral part of Ronald McDonald House Charities since helping to open the very first Ronald McDonald House in 1974. We are very excited to partner with the local NFL Alumni Chapter to support seriously ill children and their families at the Columbus Ronald McDonald House,” said Dee Anders, CEO & Executive Director of Ronald McDonald House Charities. “This support means the world to our families.”

In addition to raising funds, NFL Alumni members have donated numerous hours to child advocacy efforts contributing their time and resources to collect and distribute food and toys to various organizations throughout the years.

Individuals and companies interested in participating in this year’s August 19 event or partnership marketing opportunities to support the event are encouraged to visit the Ohio Chapter’s new website www.OhioNFLAlumni.com, or contact Susan Little 614-636-2441.
