  • 2013 MCTC Program
    Presented by Chang Family Foundation MICHA EL C H A N G MICHAELTENNIS CLASSIC CHANG TENNIS CLASSIC JULY 20, 26 - 28, 2013 Welcome Dear MCTC Participants, We are so happy to have you be a part of the Michael Chang Tennis Classic this year! We hope you will not only truly enjoy your time with us but that you will also walk away feeling blessed because of your experience and having made a friend or two. Our dedicated staff and willing volunteers have worked extremely hard in trying to again make this year’s event 1st class! Besides the Chang Family Foundation, we have another wonderful beneficiary this year in the Prince of Peace Children’s Home in Tianjin, China. This orphanage has won numerous awards for its care and housing of children with special needs. And because of its success, it has become a model and training ground for other orphanages all across China! I personally have been a big supporter of this orphanage for many years after having visited in 2004 and we are so excited to have them be our main beneficiary this year! I know everyone is looking forward to the competition at this year’s event but please do take some time to watch some great tennis, make some friends, enjoy the atmosphere and don’t forget to pick up your player bag! We have had really great player bags the past couple of years that included a personalized tennis bag tag and unfortunately, some people forget or don’t pick them up. It’s one of the unique aspects of playing in our tournament so be sure to stop by Newport Beach Tennis Club to get this year’s player bag! I hope you have a wonderful tournament and wish all of you the best of luck this weekend! Play well, have fun and know that all of our efforts are going toward making a difference in people’s lives while touching hearts too! Take good care and we’ll see you on the courts! Sincerely, Michael Chang 3 Prince of Peace Children’s Home and Children Rehabilitation Center was built to provide a loving home for orphaned children from local children’s welfare institutes.
