The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV) today announced that
the 2020 Travelers Championship generated more than $1.6 million
for more than 100 charitable organizations. Since Travelers became
title sponsor in 2007, the event has generated more than $20
million for more than 750 charities across the region.
“In all the years we’ve been fortunate enough to be title
sponsor of this world-class tournament, we have never felt as
grateful as we do right now,” said Alan Schnitzer, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer at Travelers. “For so many people to come
together in the face of incredible challenges and help the
Travelers Championship make such a difference for so many is
nothing short of remarkable. We owe a great deal of thanks to the
many tournament sponsors who pledged their support, the small but
mighty corps of mission-critical volunteers who came out and the
fans who made a difference from a distance. Congratulations to our
2020 Travelers Championship winner, Dustin Johnson. Against the
best player field we’ve ever had, Dustin put on an impressive show.
So did all those who had a hand in making sure this tournament was
a tremendous success. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back next
year.”
In addition to many of the tournament’s regular charitable
partners, this year’s recipients will include 4-CT, an independent
nonprofit that funds statewide COVID-19 relief efforts. The
Travelers Championship is also working with the Hartford Foundation
for Public Giving on a program that will foster positive
relationships between police officers and the communities they
serve.
“Once again, our local community showed how important the
Travelers Championship is to Connecticut,” said Andy Bessette,
Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer at
Travelers. “We want everyone to know how much that support means,
not only to us but to all the charities that benefit from the
tournament’s platform. We’d like to thank the PGA TOUR and its
players for helping make that happen.”
The 2021 Travelers Championship will take place June 21–27 at
TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut. For more information,
