DETAILS: The Billi Marcus Foundation’s gifts are often tied to golf events to benefit the organizations she supports. Combining her love of golf with her desire to give back, for sixteen years she ran a golf tournament as a fundraiser for Shepherd Center, an Atlanta not-for profit hospital devoted to treatment and rehabilitation of spinal cord injuries, brain injuries and neuromuscular problems. Billi also created “Camp Billi Marcus” to help working parents who might not otherwise have been able to send their children to summer programs. She also chaired and continues to be involved in the Morgan & Friends Fight Cancer Golf Tournament, a fundraiser for breast cancer in Boca Raton, Florida.
Her Foundation has also contributed to the Ovarian Cancer Institute, Jewish Association for Residential Care (JARC) of Boca Raton and the Georgia Aquarium, Big Brothers & Big Sisters, and the National Council of Jewish Women, to name a few.
