Dj Irie’s 8th Annual Celebrity Golf Tournament
Every year Miami Heat’s own, Dj Irie, puts on his Irie Weekend to raise funds for his Irie Foundation, which caters to the underprivileged youth in Miami through educational and extracurricular activities.Anchoring the Irie Weekend festivities is his celebrity golf tournament featuring everyone from Miami Heat alumni, Alonzo Mourning to Travie McCoy of Gym Class Heroes who all came out to show support.This year Irie was honored with his second proclamation from the Mayor of Miami, Carlos A. Gimenez, for his efforts and work with the inner-city youth.
We had the pleasure of having Joaquin Ortiz, Jeff Katz and Kelly Blanco of Conscious Acts of Kindness and Provider host the special event while spreading their message from their booth on hole 16 where patrons competed in the putting contest, which payed homage to Dj Irie. The golf tournament superseded last year’s and we’re sure that’s likely to happen again next year.
