Killebrew-Thompson Memorial
Beneficiaries


Over the past 35 years, the Danny Thompson Memorial has raised more than $12 million, which has been leveraged with matching grants to over $25 million, for leukemia and cancer research. Each year these proceeds are divided equally between St. Luke's Mountain States Tumor Institute in Boise, Idaho and the University of Minnesota Cancer Research Center. Last year, net proceeds reached $700,000. Your contribution is very important to cancer research and is partially tax deductible.



"The Danny Thompson Memorial is the single largest annual donor to these programs. We have been able to continually build a program that has few equals in a community of this size."

"The contribution of the Danny Thompson Golf Tournament, critical in and of itself, has leveraged additional research funds of well over $25 million."
