Greg was a Philadelphia Eagles Executive for nearly 24 years. He was a loving husband and father of two young children. Sadly, he passed away from Appendiceal Cancer in October of 2023. He is sorely missed at home, at work, and on the ice – as he was a dedicated youth hockey coach for 20 years in the Philadelphia area.
The Greg McDonald Foundation (GMF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization with a mission to empower the hockey community by providing opportunities to those with the greatest need through scholarships, equipment donations, and community service.
“We will have two large scale events each year: The GMF Golf Classic; and a Pond Hockey Tournament. The funds raised at these events will continue to support our mission. Greg’s journey, woven with threads of leadership, passion for ice hockey, and boundless love for his family, continues to inspire us and we are committed to keeping Greg’s legacy alive”, explains Patti, Greg’s widow. “We are thrilled to be able to give back to a community that provided Greg with so many opportunities in his life. Paying it forward was very important to him, and we will continue to honor that.”
The golf registration is now full for the GMF Golf Classic. Limited seating is still available for the post-golf banquet – which runs from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. The banquet will include live music, great food and drinks, celebrity guests, and a silent auction. If you would like to be placed on the waiting list for golf, or if you would like to purchase a seat at the banquet, please email: patti@gregmcdonaldfoundation.org For more information about Greg and the foundation, please visit: www.gregmcdonaldfoundation.org
