NBA All-Star Alonzo Mourning along with friends Shaquille O?Neal and Donald Trump will host the 4th Annual Zo?s Million Dollar Shootout at the Trump National Golf Club in Briarcliff Manor, New York on Monday, August 20, 2007. The three celebrities, all of whom share a passion for empowering and educating today?s youth, are coming together to support Alonzo Mourning Charities, a foundation that provides support and services to underserved youth. On par with the prominent threesome will be their friends from the sports, business and entertainment world. ?We continue to read about and witness the mounting evidence of the consequences our youth face when growing-up without a safe and supportive place to go in communities that don?t offer productive and enriching activities to support their dreams,? said Alonzo Mourning, Chairman Emeritus, Alonzo Mourning Charities. ?Investing in our youth is a personal and community-centered commitment.? Zo?s Million Dollar Shootout is a fundraising event where the proceeds generated will be dedicated to making a difference for these children.
