Stars & Pars Partners with Golf Artist Cassy Tully to benefit Give Kids The World Vill

Orlando, FL - Stars & Pars, in partnership with Travel + Leisure Co., is pleased to announce that they have commissioned Cassy Tully, golf artist and philanthropist, to create an original work of art, to be painted live at the 12th Annual Stars & Pars Golf and Gala Event. Her artwork, auctioned at the gala on Friday, October 25, 2024, to benefit the Give Kids The World Village, raised $30,000.

Starting with a blank canvas, Cassy will paint the signature hole of Waldorf Astoria’s golf course, using her signature relief-painting technique. She will also blend sand from the course into the paint, increasing its sculptural surface. Throughout the tournament, guests will also have the opportunity to add a brushstroke to the painting and see it come to life. Its vibrant colors will reflect the hope and encouragement that the Stars & Pars organization, along with its partner, Travel + Leisure Co., gives to children with critical illnesses and their families by providing weeklong, cost-free vacations.

Scott Cavanaugh, Vice President, Strategic Partnerships and Licensing at Travel + Leisure Co., noted that as of 2023, over $2,500,000 has been donated to Give Kids The World Village.

This year’s event takes place at the Waldorf Astoria Orlando, where sponsors and guests have the opportunity to golf the 18-hole championship golf course, enjoy dinner, entertainment and bid on silent and live auction items.

Along with being on-site for the duration of the weekend event, Cassy will present the completed painting live during the gala on Friday, October 25, a time for guests to view her painting and learn more about Cassy’s golf artwork and philanthropic mission to make a difference in the lives of others.

The gala silent auction will include a framed, official print of Cassy’s 43rd Ryder Cup artwork, signed by Ryder Cup Team USA Captain Steve Stricker. Stricker, also a philanthropist, created the Steve Stricker American Family Insurance Foundation to show young people that their dreams are not only attainable, but worth the effort.

“Stars & Pars is a powerful partnership that I’m inspired to be a part of,” Cassy said. “It is with joy and gratitude that I contribute my creativity to the deserving children and families.”

"Living the Dream," Original Painting to Support Zaching Against Cancer Foundation

Cassy Tully's newest painting celebrates the life of the late Zachary Lederer, University of Maryland freshman and basketball manager, who displayed courage and strength during his battle with brain cancer. 

Living the Dream is a 24 X 30" original painting alive with energy and radiant color. A packed crowd at Xfinity Center is anchored by the rippling waves of the University flag, a dramatic, four-colored contrast that contributes to the spirited scene. At center court is Zach Lederer, depicted in his signature "strongman" pose, which indicated to his family and friends that, despite his circumstances, he would be fine. The pose has since gone viral. 

Living the Dream will be auctioned at a gala on April 30, 2022, at the Xfinity Center to benefit the Zaching Against Cancer Foundation, established in memory of Zach. "I am honored that my painting will benefit this worthy cause," Cassy said. "I learned from Zach’s family that whenever he was asked how he was doing, his response was, 'I'm living the dream, how are you?' Zach’s motto inspired not only the title, but every brushstroke of my painting." 

Cassy's commitment to philanthropy is demonstrated by her longtime support of organizations like the Evans Scholars Foundation, the Veteran Golfers Association, the American Heart Association, and the Arnold Palmer Foundation. 

"Giving back through my talent is rewarding beyond measure," Cassy said. "The Zaching Against Cancer Foundation is touching and enriching the lives of many families and I am honored to support them." 

ZACF is dedicated to improving the lives of cancer patients and their caregivers by providing support through direct patient services and programs, scholarships, and grants. Each year it awards scholarships to Maryland high school seniors who have been impacted by cancer and funds cancer research at Johns Hopkins Hospital. ZACF’s “The Little Things for Cancer” program provides funds for services to help cancer patients and their caregivers with everyday expenses like prescription assistance, transportation and much more.
