We understand the importance of making tournament champions, sales teams and employees feel special. If you give me your golf tournament or event theme, I can help create the right award or gift for your employees or club members. My company,Winner’s Award Group is a full-service provider specializing in custom awards, distinctive gifts, and corporate apparel. We serve a variety of clients and occasions—from golf tournament championship belts to employee recognition and promotional items. We are your one-stop shopping experience for any golf or corporate event. In addition to owning a company with my brother Nick, our family is also committed to helping others. Over 32 years ago our family established a foundation in honor of our late father, Nicholas Chiera, who succumbed to cancer. Today, the foundation stands as a leading fundraiser, enabling children and young adults to access summer camps and pursue higher education. Named N.I.C.K.\'s Camp (Nothing is Impossible for Cancer Kids), our initiative has flourished helping thousands of children who are battling cancer attend summer camp and college. We also take children from Joe DiMaggio\'s Children\'s Hospital and give them a break from chemotherapy and teach them how to golf and ice skate. To date, we have raised over $5.5 million, For those interested in joining our cause, please visit for more information on how to get involved. Our next dinner/auction and golf tournament is scheduled for May 17th and 18th, 2025 at Broken Sound Country Club and The Old Course at Broken Sound.
