The MACC Fund is pleased to announce the playing of the 8th annual Ringer on Thursday May 1st, 2025 at The Bog Golf Course; a 100 Holes-of-Golf Marathon to raise critical funding for childhood cancer and related blood disorders research!

The name 'The Ringer' is symbolic of a child going through the unthinkable journey of battling cancer. Upon the completion of a successful childhood cancer or blood disorder treatment protocol, children are given the chance to physically 'RING THE BELL', a bell which hangs from the wall in cancer institutes across the country, to signify they have won their battle!

In just eight years, the Wisconsin Ringer and its participants have raised over $1,300,000 for childhood cancer and related blood disorders research; thanks to YOUR generosity! These funds are used to execute cutting edge research projects in conjunction with the MACC Fund's Medical Partners: the Medical College of Wisconsin, Children's Wisconsin, the UW Carbone Cancer Center, and the Marshfield Clinic. Each of these facilities are nationally recognized as leading pediatric cancer institutes.

Since the MACC Fund's inception in 1976, overall cure rates have risen from 20% to nearly 85% today! While this is excellent progress, the MACC Fund will not rest until NO child is lost to this terrible disease.

If you'd like to become a participant, sponsor a golfer, or purchase a sponsor package for the event, please contact Michael Bielawski at the MACC Fund at mbielawski@maccfund.org or at 414.339.3366.
