Over the years — with help from generous sponsors and donors like you — JYP has raised more than $8.5 million to support underserved youth in the Greater Philadelphia area.
2025 recap
For 41 years, Ron and his wife, Liz, have been dedicated to supporting at-risk youth in our communities. The Ron Jaworski Celebrity Golf Challenge began 41 years ago and has evolved into a prestigious event that has transitioned from Atlantic City to Philadelphia, and we have no plans to slow down. This event is in support of Ron’s foundation, Jaws Youth Playbook, which has become a major fundraiser, helping us raise over $8.5 million for the youth in our communities.
This year, we wanted to express our appreciation for our community. We had the honor of recognizing both Brandon Graham and Merrill Reese for their outstanding careers on and off the field. To show our gratitude, we made a $5,000 donation to Merrill’s chosen foundation, the Canine Partners for Life. Additionally, we donated $25,000 to Brandon Graham’s charity of choice, the Jalen Hurts Foundation. Ron has always understood that uplifting the community around us involves collective effort, and Philadelphia has been instrumental in enabling us to achieve this. The City of Brotherly Love lives up to its name through the tremendous support we have received.
