of the nation's finest and most historic courses, the Colonial tournament also works hard to support the North Texas area with generous community service. The tournament has helped raise millions of dollars for dozens of charities around North Texas. The late Ben and Valerie Hogan were great supporters of Cook Children’s Medical Center throughout their life, an organization the tournament has partnered with in various ways over the years. Colonial undertakes numerous activities to generate charity monies each year, in addition to making direct donations. This has included hosting such events as an annual charity golf day event, held a few weeks before the PGA Tour event for about 20 years, and occasional other charitable golf outings. The tournament surpassed the million dollar mark in annual giving in 1998, and has exceeded that level every year since. In 2002 Colonial Country Club was named the Outstanding Philanthropic Organization in Tarrant County by
