DAVAO CITY — Even after his death, help will continue for four organizations when the 1st F.S. Dizon Charity Golf Tournament tees off on November 10 at the all-weather Rancho Palos Golf and Country Club.

Jose `Joe’ Marfori, son-in-law of the late Don Francisco `Paco’ Dizon, announced on Thursday’s DSA Forum at the Tower Inn that the tournament aims to raise P1 million to benefit the Davao Medical Center, Maharlika Charity Foundation, Missionary Sisters of Charity and Balay Pasilungan.

Don Paco allocates funds to support the four organizations every year when he was still alive and the family members decided to continue the legacy left by the philanthropist.

Marfori said that all proceeds will be given to the organizations.

The charity golf tournament offers, though, P1 million as hole-in-one prize other than the prizes at stake for the winners.

Guests from Manila and Cagayan de Oro cities are joining the event, said the national senior’s golf squad member.

Two hundred golfers are expected to see action.
