Baltimore Badminton Charity Open Banner
This is a fun badminton tournament held near Baltimore to assist victims and their families and to help organizations that provide relief to those devastated by events such as tsunamis, earthquakes, hurricanes, house fires and other disasters. The tournament was started in April 2005 by Rick Wiker and Elena Zhang

We have several funds run by the American Red Cross to receive all the net proceeds of this tournament. Those funds are the National Disaster Relief Fund and the Chesapeake Region Emergency Fund.
You can choose which fund you wish to support.
(for how much each fund received, see the Results pages on the left side after the Tournament).

The Charity Open has raised over $85,000 for the Red Cross!
