Cocktails For The Cup Presented by Lexus

Event Benefitting Atlanta’s The Silverton Foundation



Blue Giraffe Sports and The Fabulous Palm
Restaurant in Buckhead will host a charity event on Thursday, Sept. 19, to
celebrate the culmination of the 2013 professional golf season in Atlanta. Cocktails
For The Cup (CFTC) has become a staple in Atlanta’s fall social schedule, while
benefiting a different charity each year, through a gathering of Atlanta’s elite
and those in the professional golf world. There will also be a silent auction with approximately 80 items between $20 and $1,000. The 2013 CFTC will donate a portion of
its proceeds to a deserving local charity through contributions, ticket sales,
and outstanding corporate support.



The 2013 beneficiary
of CFTC is The Silverton Foundation, a mortgage, rent and short-term housing
assistance program that helps families with hospitalized or critically-ill
children maintain their homes and reduce their emotional and financial burdens.

longstanding commitment to support organizations that build, shape and improve

golf season in Atlanta with many of our friends, partners, clients and Atlanta’s
