PayLease, a leading provider of electronic payments for the property management industry, today announced that its 2nd Annual Charity Golf Tournament raised $10,000 to benefit Fresh Start Surgical Gifts. One-hundred percent of proceeds will be donated to help children with deformities. Fresh Start is a San Diego non-profit organization that provides free reconstructive surgery for children with deformities.

The tournament was held on June 9 at Riverwalk Golf Club in Mission Valley, and drew participation from approximately 100 attendees. Additionally, more than 30 local businesses supported the cause through sponsorships and donations.

This is the second year that PayLease has donated 100% of proceeds from its Charity Golf Tournament to Fresh Start Surgical Gifts. PayLease donated $4,100 in proceeds from its First Annual Charity Golf Tournament to the organization in 2011.

Dave Dutch, CEO of PayLease said, “I am jazzed that PayLease is able to provide Fresh Start Surgical Gifts with resources that will allow them to transform the lives of children. I want to thank all the businesses, individuals and PayLeasers who generously donated their time and money for such a great cause.”

The tournament was played shotgun style with various contests on the course including Longest Drive, Closest to the Pin and Hole in Ones. Following the tournament was a lunch, and awards ceremony and a drawing for raffle prizes.

About Fresh Start Surgical Gifts

Fresh Start is a non-profit organization that provides reconstructive dental and plastic surgery for kids free of charge. Six weekends annually Fresh Start holds a Surgery Weekend where 80-100 medical volunteers provide reconstructive plastic surgery and reconstructive dental surgery for infants, children, and young adults with physical deformities free of charge. Surgery Weekends are held at the Fresh Start Clinic at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego. All medical and support personnel generously volunteer their time, talents and expertise.

Fresh Start serves U.S.-based children as a priority and reaches out internationally as we believe that no child should suffer with a physical deformity due to birth defect, disease, accident or abuse. With insurance deeming more and more deformities as “cosmetic” we are determined to make certain that all children get the medical attention they need regardless of the family’s ability to pay.  For more information about Fresh Start Surgical Gifts, please visit Fresh Start Surgical Gifts or call (760) 944-7774.
