NEWARK, Ohio — Education is the key to stopping prostate cancer, and The GolfWorks — golf’s largest and oldest component distributor still under original ownership — is proud to assist the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) in delivering its message to more than one million golfers this year.

 “We at The GolfWorks applaud the efforts of the Prostate Cancer Foundation, and we know that education is the real key to helping men fight this terrible disease,” says Al Bessin, co-CEO of The GolfWorks. “In 2004 alone, The GolfWorks will mail more than 1.2 million catalogs which showcases the joint message of Lamkin Grip and Arnold Palmer which we hope will go a long way to educate more individuals about prostate cancer.”

 An honorary national chairman for the PCF, Palmer has been a staunch advocate for the fight against cancer and he has tirelessly worked to enlist leading golf equipment companies for support. As a result, The Golfworks and Lamkin Grips are donating proceeds from every Lamkin grip purchased to help fund prostate cancer research, develop treatments and discover cures.

 The Prostate Cancer Foundation is the world’s largest philanthropy supporting prostate cancer research. Founded in 1993, the PCF reaches out to private industry, patient advocacy groups and government research institutions and encourages collaboration, reduces bureaucracy and speeds the process of discovery. These partnerships provide a model to speed the cure for prostate cancer — and all cancers.
